Score updates and GoVols247's live coverage from No. 3 Tennessee baseball's series opener at Florida, and the first of Friday's doubleheader, following Thursday night's postponement.

No. 3 Tennessee baseball opens up this weekend's series at Florida on Friday afternoon at 3 p.m. ET on SEC Network+ following Thursday night's postponement.

It'll be the first game of a doubleheader, as the two teams will play game two of the series 45 minutes following the conclusion of game one. The series finale is still scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET on Saturday evening. It will also be broadcast on SEC Network+.

The Big Orange enter the series having won six consecutive conference series after dropping their SEC opening weekend matchup at Alabama, while Florida has lost four consecutive series and did not win a series in the month of April.

Tennessee has won each of its last three series on the road against the Gators, including a sweep during its last trip to the Swamp in 2022. Florida won last year's series in Knoxville, taking the first two games before UT salvaged a game with a 14-2 run-rule victory in the finale.
