Can Vanderbilt baseball finally get something going on the road for the first time this season?
It is a question that has arguably been one of the most pressing questions of this Commodores team. The road struggles have been real this season and the numbers prove it. Vanderbilt is 3-10 away from home with one of the three wins coming against a mid-major program in Lipscomb.
If things continue to go in that type of direction, Vanderbilt’s postseason hopes could quickly come into jeopardy. The Commodores play three of the next four weekends on the road and it all starts this weekend as they travel to Kentucky for a three-game series.
Vanderbilt is coming off back-to-back SEC series losses and its conference record has dropped to 7-8. Last week’s series loss to Oklahoma seemed to be one that caught Vanderbilt off guard a little bit and seemed to make head coach Tim Corbin really express the need to get things turned around before time runs out.
Vanderbilt’s first game against Kentucky is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. CT on ESPN+.
