HOOVER, Ala. (AP) — Drake Fellows pitched six scoreless innings for his 11th win of the season and top-seeded Vanderbilt beat No. 4 seed Mississippi State 1-0 in the Southeastern Conference Tournament on Thursday night.
Vanderbilt (47-10) continued its roll through SEC competition. The Commodores have won 16 of their past 17 games against league opponents.
Fellows (11-0) gave up just five hits and a walk and struck out eight. Julian Infante's single in the second inning scored Stephen Scott for the only run of the game.
Mississippi State's Ethan Small (8-2) was also excellent on the mound, giving up one run on three hits while striking out 11 over seven innings.
Mississippi State (46-12) was playing one day after a 6-5 victory over LSU that lasted 17 innings. The Bulldogs will play LSU again in an elimination game on Friday. Vanderbilt is off until the semifinals on Saturday.
