2. Jonathan White CF
3. Curt Casali 1B

Weather: Sunny, 80 degrees.Winds blowing from the northeast at 4 mph.

Louisville will send lefthander Bob Revesz (4-1, 4.08 ERA) to the hill tonight to face the Commodores. Revesz is not your prototypical power southpaw as he has 26 strikeouts in 57.1 innings of work this season. He is allowing an average of over one hit per inning while opponents are hitting .284 off him.

Vanderbilt has seen Revesz once already this season as he started against the Commodores on April 22. In the start against the Commodores, VU tagged Revesz for six hits and two runs in 4.2 innings of work. Revesz struck out three Commodores in the no decision start.

The Commodores rallied to defeat Louisville 4-3 in its only meeting between the two schools this season.

Vanderbilt will counter with Nick Christiani. The senior righthander allowed three runs, four hits and one walk against LSU in the SEC Tournament championship on May 24.
