The Tennessee baseball team’s crucial matchup in the College World Series on Wednesday has been delayed due to inclement weather. Originally scheduled for 2 p.m., the game will now start at 3 p.m. ET on ESPN. The Vols will face either Florida State or North Carolina in this vital contest.
The delay was caused by bad weather that also pushed back Tuesday’s game between Florida and Kentucky to Wednesday morning. Despite the setback, the Vols are in a strong position after opening the College World Series with two wins. They defeated Florida State 12-11 and North Carolina 6-1, achieving a 2-0 record for the first time in program history.
If Tennessee wins their upcoming game, they will advance to the best-of-three championship series. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story as the Vols continue their journey in the College World Series.
