The Auburn Tigers host Georgia Tech on Tuesday at Plainsman Park, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place
After dropping their first series of the season last weekend to Southeastern Louisiana, Auburn (12-3-1) is looking to win back momentum ahead of this weekend’s trip to Arkansas by playing long-time rival Georgia Tech (13-3) in a midweek game on the Plains. It will be a great time for Auburn to showcase its skills, as Tuesday’s game will be shown to a national audience via SEC Network.
Georgia Tech will be the third team from a Power Five conference to visit Auburn this season, as the Tigers have also played weekend series’ with Indiana and USC. Auburn head coach [autotag]Butch Thompson[/autotag] feels that his team will work to find success against the Yellow Jackets on Tuesday.
“It’s not who you play but how you play,” Thompson said. “There’s only one standard to play, and that’s as good as we can play.”
Auburn will look to Tommy Vail to keep the Yellow Jackets in line on the mound. Vail struck out eight batters in 5.2 innings of work in last Tuesday’s 4-1 win over UAB, holding the Blazers scoreless. Vail has allowed just one hit in 13.1 innings and has a current streak of 9.2 innings of no-hit baseball.
