The Tennessee Volunteers trailed the Wright State Raiders 8-5 with one out in the bottom of the ninth on Friday night, when Drew Gilbert stepped to the plate. And he turned it into a 9-8 Vols victory.
Gilbert cranked an 0-1 curveball over the right field wall for a walk-off grand slam. It made for an incredible scene in Knoxville:

Tennessee will now face Liberty on Saturday. The Flames beat Duke on Friday in the Knoxville regional.
