A five-run sixth inning propelled Tennessee into the win column Saturday night.
The No. 4 Volunteers had to come from behind to edge No. 9 Florida, 5-4, in a Southeastern Conference game at Lindsey Nelson Stadium.
The Gators (20-11, 5-6 SEC) jumped to an early lead when they scored three runs in the top of the fourth inning.
The Vols (27-5, 9-2) clinched the series against Florida despite only four hits on the night.
Tennessee scored its first run of the evening when Jake Rucker drew a walk with the bases loaded.
The Vols pulled to within 3-2 when Liam Spence came home after Drew Gilbert hitting into a double play.
In the frame, Luc Lipcius, Jordan Beck and Connor Pavolony all came up big with two outs.
Lipcius had an RBI double, while Beck and Pavolony each had scoring singles to give Tennessee, which had one hit, a single by Liam Spence, heading into the frame.
The Vols have now won their first four SEC series for the first time since 1970.
UT will go for the sweep Sunday against Florida. The Vols are undefeated on Sundays in 2021.
