Levi Clark got the long ball party started with a mammoth two-run blast off the light pole in left-center field in the second inning to put the Vols ahead 2-0. The Vols added three more runs to their total with three solo shots in the bottom of the fifth, starting with back-to-back blasts from Jay Abernathy and Garrett Wright before Henry Ford launched 1-1 pitch over the porches for his team-leading 16th four-bagger of the year.

Trent Grindlinger started Tennessee’s six-run eighth inning with a solo home run of his own before Hunter High put the finishing touches on the game with his first homer of the season, a two-run shot the opposite way to bring the run-rule into effect.

Sophomore right-hander Nic Abraham was stellar on the mound for the Big Orange in his third midweek start of the year. The California native tossed a career-high 5.2 innings against the Bruins (19-33), allowing just one run on four hits while striking out four batters and not issuing any walks to earn the win and improve to 2-0 on the year.
