In response to several in-game controversies this season involving allegedly altered composite bats being used by some teams, baseball bat-maker Easton has threatened "aggressive legal action" against the perpetrators. This legal development is a minor victory for Vanderbilt skipper Tim Corbin, who has been an outspoken critic of the use of tampered bats this season. Meanwhile, the SEC runner-up Commodores are in the midst of staving off elimination in the Louisville NCAA regional, having lost a 5-4 squeaker against in-state rival MTSU Friday afternoon that included an MTSU grand slam in the top of the first. Vandy responded Saturday by pounding Indiana 10-0 behind a brilliant performance from freshman flamethrower Sonny Gray. The 'Dores and Blue Raiders will play a re-match today at 2 p.m. The winner must beat host Louisville twice to advance to a Super Regional. (Who knows? Maybe "The Greatest" will make another appearance at Patterson Stadium!)
