Vanderbilt’s baseball team saw its quest to win the Southeastern Conference Tournament get a little more difficult on Thursday.

The Commodores fell 6-3 to Florida in a third-round game in Hoover, Ala., meaning fourth-seeded Vanderbilt will play in an elimination game against ninth-seeded Alabama on Friday. That contest will air on the SEC Network and start 30 minutes after the LSU-Texas A&M elimination game, which begins at 3 p.m.
