Vanderbilt baseball’s game time for Game 2 of its series against Alabama at Sewell-Thomas Stadium in Tuscaloosa was changed to a 12:30 p.m. first pitch on May 1 due to potential inclement weather.
The game will be televised on SEC Network+.
No. 23 Alabama (30-16, 11-11 SEC) won Game 1, 5-4, on a walk-off home run by John Lemm on April 30.
Vanderbilt (27-20, 10-12) led 4-1 in the middle innings, but coach Tim Corbin controversially pulled Connor Fennell from the game in the sixth inning at just 70 pitches and the Crimson Tide came back to tie the game that inning.
The Commodores thus need a win in Game 2 to keep alive their NCAA Tournament hopes. Vanderbilt has a TBA starter but is likely to turn to freshman left-hander Aiden Stillman.
