The Tennessee baseball team lost a one-run lead in the ninth inning Sunday, then came back in the 10th to win 6-5 at No. 20 Georgia and avoid a sweep.
Justin Ammons doubled in the 10th, driving in Jay Charleston for the game-winning run. Freshman pitcher Garrett Crochet earned the win out of the bullpen for a second Sunday in a row for the Volunteers, who are trying to stay in contention for an SEC tournament bid.
Tennessee (25-21, 8-13) lost 8-6 on Friday and 12-4 on Saturday to the Bulldogs (30-14, 12-9). The Vols are 13th out of 14 teams in the SEC standings, and only the top 12 qualify for the league tournament. With two weekends of conference play remaining, they're one game behind Missouri and two games behind Kentucky.
Kentucky visits Lindsey Nelson Stadium for a three-game series beginning Friday.
Charleston, a sophomore second baseman, paced the Vols offensively Sunday from the leadoff spot with four hits. Senior center fielder Brodie Leftridge had a three-run double in the second.
Junior pitcher Will Neely went 5 2/3 innings before Crochet took over.
