In the first inning, Jordan Beck hit a home run for Tennessee. Beck was ruled out as umpires inspected his bat. His bat did not have an approved sticker for Friday’s Vanderbilt game.
The Southeastern Conference released a statement to Vols Wire regarding the incident.
“In pre-series bat testing, a sticker with the logo of the opposing team is placed on legal bats. There was a sticker on the bat in question, but it was not an appropriate sticker on the bat. It was a sticker from a midweek game. Therefore the bat was deemed illegal.”
