In an injury-plagued season, Vanderbilt baseball added two more names to its list of those unavailable.Outfielder Logan Johnstone missed an 11-1 win over Xavier on April 21 in concussion protocol and pitcher Connor Hamilton had a "lat issue," according to coach Tim Corbin.Johnstone originally suffered the injury in a collision with Mike Mancini during an April 18 game against Kentucky. He remained in the game at the time but missed the series finale. Hamilton also suffered his injury during the series against the Wildcats."He wasn't healthy," Corbin said.
"Had a little bit of a lat issue. He'd be pitching tonight, if he, so I think he's going to be OK, but we had to just give him a couple days."Hamilton is the seventh different Commodores pitcher to miss time with injury this season. Miller Green and Aiden Stillman recently returned from preseason ailments, while Austin Nye underwent internal brace surgery and England Bryan, Adria Casoliba and Matthew Shorey also remain out.It is unclear whether either player will be available when Vanderbilt takes on Texas for a three-game series from April 24-26 at Hawkins Field.Aria Gerson covers Vanderbilt athletics for The Tennessean.
