Your daily briefing on what’s going on with Vanderbilt Athletics.
Vanderbilt baseball got back on the right track over the weekend and one player is being recognized for it. Vanderbilt freshman pitcher Wyatt Nadeau was named the SEC Freshman of the Week for his performance against No.
13 LSU this weekend. Nadeau made his first conference start and his second start overall. Against the Tigers, he threw 7.0 innings and had 10 strikeouts, allowing just four hits and one run through his first six innings as he helped lead Vanderbilt to a 11-3 win over LSU Saturday night. Nadeau’s win on the mound also helped Vanderbilt seal up a series win over the defending national champions on the first weekend of conference play. Heading into this week, Vanderbilt has a 13-8 record as it prepared to take on the Indiana Hoosiers for its midweek game before traveling to No. 6 Mississippi State for a weekend series. The Commodores’ offense has come alive of late, scoring nine or more runs in six of their last seven games. Vanderbilt’s offense has been streaky at times this season with experiencing times of hot bats and times where the team has not been able to produce offensively. The main concern for Vanderbilt as it continues to roll along in its schedule is the depth at pitching. In two of the three games over the weekend, LSU was able to score 12 or more runs outside of Nadeau’s start. Perhaps going forward, Nadeau will be that guy that will be able to earn more opportunities in the starting rotation and cement himself as a reliable arm in a gauntlet of a conference.
