Georgia Loses Again, 5-2
The Georgia Bulldogs got a sterling performance from pitcher James Rizzo, but the Vanderbilt Commodores still prevailed, 5-2. Rizzo threw 5.1 innings of 3-hit ball. The save was credited to Jay Ocker, his 4th. The Commodores, at 15-26, sit in 21st place in the Ron Fraser Division.

Vanderbilt used the timely hitting of Beau McCann to capture the win. The pinch hitter socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Commodores ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"Different night, same tune, unfortunately," said losing manager Nate Roe.
