OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — Vanderbilt trailed 1-0 early but then reeled off seven straight runs to beat Michigan, 8-2, in Game 3 of the CWS Finals on Wednesday night at TD Ameritrade Park Omaha.

It's the Commodores' 2nd national title in program history, with the first one coming back in 2014.

Vandy becomes the first school to win multiple College World Series crowns at TD Ameritrade Park.

After trailing 1-0 after the first inning, Pat DeMarco evened things with a solo home run in the bottom of the 2nd.

The 'Dores then took the lead on a bases loaded walk in the bottom of the 3rd followed by a two-run RBI single by Stephen Scott.

Vanderbilt finished the season with a 59-12 record, the most wins ever by an SEC team.
