No. 1 Tennessee beats Vandy 5-0, completes series sweep

Tennessee completed its series sweep of Vanderbilt with a 5-0 win Sunday.

As was the theme for the rest of this trip to Nashville, the Vols’ pitchers were just too much for Vanderbilt’s hitters. Drew Beam was extremely efficient in the win, as he gave up just two hits in his first career complete-game shutout.

This was a relatively quiet game for the offenses. Vanderbilt was stymied by Beam, and while the five runs doesn’t seem too far-off of the typical Volunteer output, the UT bats didn’t really get going until late in the game.

Tennessee took the lead in the fourth off a massive, Drew Gilbert solo home run to deep right field, but that was the only run scored off the long ball today.
