Starting pitcher Hunter Barco exited the game after two innings while dealing with the aftereffects of an illness, according to coach Kevin O’Sullivan.
For six innings, their bullpen did a stellar job. They limited the Commodores to just two runs (one of them unearned) and struck out six batters. Vanderbilt went 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position during the third through eighth innings against UF’s quartet of relievers.
