Vanderbilt baseball live score updates vs. Florida: Commodores face Gators in SEC series

After getting swept by Texas A&M and shut out in the first two games, Vanderbilt baseball is looking for a bounce back at home against Florida.

The Gators (19-18, 7-9 SEC) have had an even more topsy-turvy season than the Commodores themselves. Florida is the only team to win a series against Texas A&M this season but got swept by Missouri and then lost a series at home to South Carolina. The Gators have also lost a litany of midweek games, including to Jacksonville and Stetson.
