Swanson's home run propels Dores to 6-4 win

Sometimes it feels as if Dansby Swanson can do no wrong.

The junior – and odds on favorite to be the first pick in the upcoming Amateur Draft – hit a go-ahead home run in the top of the ninth to seal a 6-4 victory over Indiana. And if that weren’t enough, he made a jaw-dropping, Derek Jeter-esque, cross-body throw to get the first out of the bottom of the inning.

Vanderbilt will face the winner of Radford and Indiana tomorrow at 7 pm CT, where Walker Buehler (3-2, 3.18 ERA) will take the mound. The Highlanders and Hoosiers will play a game earlier at 3 pm CT.
