Nashville: Vandy comes back
By Chris Lee - March 18, 2007
The Commodores got a little offensive luck of their own in the bottom of the fifth. With one out, Alex Feinberg grounded a ball in the hole to deep short that Zack Cozart gloved, turned and made a spectacular accurate throw to first just as he fell on to his back in the outfield. Feinberg is an averge runner at best, but the ball was so deep in the hole that he beat Cozart's throw by about a foot at first.
Next, Dominic de la Osa bounced a ball up the middle just out of Cozart's reach by about a foot, and the Commodores had men on first and second with one down.
Ole Miss's Brett Bukvich didn't want any part of Pedro Alvarez, throwing off-speed stuff out of the zone and issuing a four-pitch walk. Then slumping Ryan Flaherty came to the plate, and on a 2-1 pitch (ball two was a controversial call), lined one that bounced just in front of the warning track in right center, scoring Feinberg and de la Osa.
Shea Robin followed by lining a sharp single past third baseman Cody Overbeck, plating another run and prompting a pitching change.
It's now tied at 4 in the bottom of the fifth, Vandy hitting against Cody Satterwhite with men on the corners nd one away.
