No. 1 Vols beat Bama 15-4, win series 2-1

Tennessee’s offense came on in a big way Sunday, and despite dropping the Friday game, the Vols won their fifth-straight SEC series with a 15-4 drubbing of Alabama in Sunday’s rubber match.

UT belted 15 hits en route to those 15 runs, and two different Vols drove in four runs each. Jorel Ortega continued the blistering pace he set during this series with a home run and four total hits, while Trey Lipscomb sent both of his hits outta the park for round trippers.

Bama struck first, off a solo home run in the top of the first from two-hole hitter Drew Williamson, but the Vols responded with a four spot in the bottom of the second inning.
