Diamond Rebels take opening series at Tennessee

Ole Miss capped off a 4-1 week on the road by taking two of three games from Tennessee including a 10-7 win on Sunday that clenched the series.

After overcoming a 3-2 loss in walk-off fashion on back to back two out hits, the Rebels rebounded on Saturday with a 6-4 in large part due to Michael Fitzsimmons two-run home run in the sixth inning that ended up being the difference in the game. Chad Smith went 4.2 innings, allowing two on six hits, and struck out seven, in the no decision.
Possibly the most telling stat of the weekend, came in Sunday’s series clinching win, as the Rebels went 8-17 with runners in scoring position as it scored 10 runs on 15 hits.
