Mississippi State beats Vanderbilt, 10-8
Elijah MacNamee hits walk-off home run to give Mississippi State win over Vanderbilt in Super Regionals
Elijah MacNamee has done it again.
Just one week after hitting a walk-off home run in the Tallahassee Regional to keep Mississippi State’s season alive in an elimination game, MacNamee continued his heroics with another walk-off homer as the Bulldogs are now one win away from a trip to the College World Series.
Tied at eight against Vanderbilt in the bottom of the ninth, MacNamee sent an 0-2 breaking ball over the left field fence to give Mississippi State a 10-8 win, and a 1-0 lead in the Nashville Super Regional.

The Bulldogs and Commodores will meet Saturday at 9:30 p.m. ET in Game 2.
