Georgia's starting pitcher Alex McRee (4-1, 3.55 ERA) is coming off one of his best starts of his career last week as he fanned eight Florida batters while allowing two runs, one earned. The junior southpaw has 47 strikeouts and 36 walks in 45.2 innings this season.
McRee carries a 11.57 ERA against Vanderbilt in his career but his role has been limited as he has only thrown 2.1 innings against the 'Dores.
The 'Dores look to take the series today and will turn to staff ace, Mike Minor on the mound. The lefthander leads the team in strikeouts (79) and innings pitched (73.1). Minor tied a career high last weekend in a loss to South Carolina allowing seven runs and four walks while striking out one.
