Auburn falls apart in eighth inning, gets crushed 24-7 by Georgia

The Bulldogs scored 16 runs in the eighth inning to put the game away.

Auburn once again erased an early lead Saturday against the Georgia Bulldogs but unlike the first two games of the series, the Bulldogs kept adding on and crushed the Tigers 24-7 in Plainsman Park.

Auburn (6-7-1, 2-4 SEC) trailed just 8-7 entering the eighth inning but the pitching staff came unraveled, surrendering eight hits and issuing eight free passes as the Bulldogs scored 16 runs to take command of the game and end any chances of Auburn completing their third straight comeback win.

Charlie Condon walked to lead off the inning and scored after consecutive singles by Parks Harber and Corey Collins to make it 9-7. A four-pitch walk to Will David loaded the bases with nobody out.

A second-straight walk brought another run home before Mason LaPlante broke the game up with a two-RBI single to make it 12-7. They kept adding on as their next eight batters reached safely to make it 20-7.

Auburn needed to cut the deficit to under 10 in the bottom of the eighth inning to prevent a run-rule loss but was unable to do so.

For the third time in the series, Auburn fell behind early. This time Georgia did their damage at the top of the first. Ben Anderson led the game off with a double and scored two batters later when Condon singled him home.

Harber gave them some breathing room next when he belted a two-run homer over the left field wall to give them an early 3-0 lead. Connor Tate opened the third inning with a solo home run to make it a 4-0 game.

After the next three Bulldog hitters reached base to load the bases with one out, [autotag]Butch Thompson[/autotag] replaced freshman starter [autotag]Zach Crotchfelt[/autotag] with [autotag]Christian Hernandez[/autotag]. The right-hander struck out Sebastian Murillo but walked Cole Wagner to give the Bulldogs a 5-0 lead.

Auburn started chipping away in the bottom of the inning with a two-out rally. [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] got things started with a single before [autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag] was hit by a pitch. After Georgia failed to get Ware out in a rundown, [autotag]Justin Kirby[/autotag] hit a shallow blooper into right field to score Ware and make it a 5-1 game.

The Tigers got another run back in the fourth after [autotag]Nate LaRue[/autotag] walked and advanced on a wild pitch and scored on a single by [autotag]Caden Green[/autotag]. Kason Howell kept the rally going with a bunt single but Auburn was unable to get another run across and left two more runners stranded.

The Bulldogs struck again when Parks led the fifth inning off with a double and David singled him home to make it a 6-2 lead. Thompson once again went to his bullpen after that, this time calling for Parker Carlson.

Georgia once again loaded the bases after an error by [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] and Carlson walked a batter. The Bulldogs took advantage of the opportunity with a two-RBI single by LaPlante to make it 8-2 and break the game open.

The Tigers chased Georgia starter Liam Sullivan in the fifth inning after Kirby singled and Bobby Pierce reached on an infield single. Cooper McMurray entered as a pinch hitter and smoked a double to right field to make it 8-4 and get Auburn back in the game.

Auburn’s offense caught fire in the sixth inning. Howell walked to start the inning and Cole Foster doubled to bring Ware up with two runners in scoring position and nobody out. Ware smashed his 11th homer of the season to left center to make it an 8-7 game and seize the momentum for Auburn.

It would not last as the Bulldogs went on to score 16 runs in the eighth inning and prevent Auburn from sweeping the series.

Auburn baseball takes Georgia series with another impressive comeback

For the second game in a row, Auburn erased a three-run Georgia lead to steal a victory.

The Auburn Tigers earned their first SEC series win of the season by taking game two of the series with Georgia with a striking resemblance to how they won the series opener.

On Thursday, Georgia led 6-3 heading to the bottom half of the 9th inning. Auburn would tie the game on a two-RBI double by [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] and an error that allowed him to score several at-bats later. Auburn would then seal the win in the 11th inning when [autotag]Carter Wright[/autotag] was walked on four pitches with the bases loaded, giving the Tigers the 7-6 advantage.

In Friday’s middle game, Georgia jumped out to a 3-0 advantage through five innings before Auburn, yet again, erased the deficit to collect a win. Ike Irish scored three of the Tigers’ runs, and Justin Kirby added three more on a home run to left field in the 6th inning to give Auburn the 6-3 win over Georgia, which clinched the series at Plainsman Park.

“I thought it was a tall order tonight. I thought some things would have to go our way because you have a real, like game one SEC starter (Georgia starting pitcher Jaden Woods) going for them tonight even though it’s game two,” head coach Butch Thompson said following his team’s win over Georgia. “Any way you slice it, that’s a top-10 offense that you are facing. I thought that combination made this one really challenging.”

The Bulldogs struck first in the top of the 2nd inning when Cole Wagner was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded, giving the Bulldogs the 1-0 lead. Bulldog power hitter Charlie Condon doubled the lead on a solo shot to dead-center field in the 3rd inning to move Georgia ahead, 2-0.

After the home run, Auburn starter [autotag]Tanner Bauman[/autotag] walked the ensuing batter on four pitches, which caused head coach Butch Thompson to make a pitching change. [autotag]Chase Allsup[/autotag] was called upon and ended the inning by striking out Sebastian Murillo to end the inning.

Allsup held Georgia in check until the 5th inning when a hit that just fell shy of [autotag]Justin Kirby[/autotag]’s glove in right field, as well as an error, led the Bulldogs to score another run, extending their lead to 3-0. He would exit in the 6th inning after allowing one hit and striking out a batter in 2.2 innings of work.

Auburn was able to erase the no-hit effort of Georgia’s Jaden Woods in the bottom of the inning when freshman [autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag] hit his first collegiate home run over the monster in left field to cut into the Bulldog’s lead, 3-1.

Irish would score Auburn’s second run of the game on a sacrifice fly with the bases loaded in the 6th inning. Auburn would then take the lead on the very next at-bat when Justin Kirby cranked his eighth home run of the season over the left field wall. The three-run shot put Auburn ahead, 5-3.

Momentum rushed to Auburn’s side of the top of the 7th inning when Georgia’s Corey Collins failed to touch home plate after a Sebastian Murillo single that would have trimmed Auburn’s lead to 5-4. After review, it was determined that Collins never touched the plate, and was tagged out while trying to correct the effort.

From that moment on, Auburn collected three hits and a run while holding Georgia to two hits.

Irish and Kirby paced the team in RBI, scoring three runs each. The Tigers recorded eight hits in the game, with [autotag]Caden Green[/autotag] being the only player to record two. John Armstrong earned the win on the mound. He went 2.2 innings and allowed five hits, zero earned runs, and zero walks.

Game three of the series between Auburn and Georgia is set for 2 p.m. CT at Plainsman Park and will be streamed live on SEC Network+.

Auburn walks it off in series opener with Georgia

Auburn trailed Georgia by three runs heading to the 9th inning, but a walk-off walk in the 11th inning sealed the come-from-behind win.

It took 11 innings, but it all came down to a walk in the Auburn Tigers series-opening 7-6 win over the Georgia Bulldogs.

“I didn’t ask for a lot this week,” head coach [autotag]Butch Thompson[/autotag] said following the game. “I just asked for these guys to kind of connect with one another. I asked the guys what it really means to stay in the fight and to keep punching back. We thought we took more punches than we really delivered last week. That ninth is a good symbol of hanging around and staying in there.”

[autotag]Tommy Vail[/autotag] got the start for Auburn. He pitched five innings, allowing four runs on seven hits, walking two batters and striking out seven. [autotag]Will Cannon[/autotag] ended up with the win, pitching the final three innings. He allowed one run off of one hit, walked two batters and struck out three.

Kolten Smith got the start for Georgia. He tossed 3.1 innings, allowing one run off of two hits. Kyle Greenler ended up with the loss for the Bulldogs in 0.2 innings of work, allowing one run off of two hits and walking two batters, one of them being [autotag]Carter Wright[/autotag] to end the game.

Georgia took a 3-0 lead in the fourth inning. [autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag] got the scoring started for Auburn in the bottom of that inning with a double that scored [autotag]Cole Foster[/autotag]. [autotag]Connor Green[/autotag] tacked on another run for the Tigers in the fifth inning with a solo shot to left field.

Georgia added another run in the top of the sixth inning. [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] hit a solo home run in the bottom of that inning to bring the Tigers within one.

The Bulldogs added on two more runs in the top of the ninth inning to extend their lead to three. Auburn refused to go down quietly, however. Ware doubled down the right-field line to score Foster and [autotag]Kason Howell[/autotag]. [autotag]Justin Kirby[/autotag] reached on an error that allowed Ware to score.

The next run came in the bottom of the 11th inning when Wright was walked, allowing Irish to score.

Auburn will be back in action tomorrow night for the second game of the series. First pitch is set for 6:00 p.m. CT.

Auburn baseball vs. Jax State: How to watch/listen to Wednesday’s game in Jacksonville

The No. 25 Tigers travel to Jacksonville to face the Gamecocks in their first true road contest of the season.

The No. 25 Auburn Tigers plays Jax State on Wednesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

Auburn baseball began midweek action on Tuesday with a defensive battle with UAB. [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] recorded three of Auburn’s four hits in the contest which included a two-run home run in the 4th inning to lift Auburn over the Blazers, 4-1 at Plainsman Park.

Wednesday, Auburn will travel to Jax State for their first true road game of the season to face the Gamecocks at Rudy Abbot Field in Jacksonville.

After the UAB win on Tuesday night, Auburn head coach [autotag]Butch Thompson[/autotag] says that in-state games are important, and will build up the team ahead of SEC play next weekend. The Gamecocks enter the contest with a 4-8 record, but Thompson knows that his team can not take them lightly, especially at their place.

“Like UAB, look at this game (Tuesday), that was a pretty high-level baseball game. You are going to get that in the state of Alabama,” Thompson said after Auburn’s win over UAB on Tuesday. “I know what to expect (Wednesday), (Jax State) beat us on our home field last year. I think that was the only midweek game we lost within the ten weeks of SEC play.”

It is spring break at Auburn University, which means that the Tigers will play their first back-to-back midweek games of the season. Thompson says that his team needs to put Tuesday’s win behind them, and get ready for a new day.

“We have to reset and get right back at this (Wednesday). Spin a couple of bullets tonight and we have four more games this week,” Thompson said. “It will force us to keep unveiling some bullpen pieces, some young guys will be in the mix.”

Below, you will find everything you need to know ahead of Wednesday’s game between Auburn and Jax State, including a broadcast guide, projected lineup, and the pitching rotation.

Auburn baseball smothers UAB behind three-hit effort from Bryson Ware

Ware picked up three of Auburn’s four hits as the Tigers pick up their fifth straight win.

In a game where both offenses were at a premium, it was Auburn that stood tall over the visiting UAB Blazers.

Both teams combined to record just seven base hits, with Auburn taking credit for four of them. Behind a one-hit effort from Auburn pitching, and a three-hit performance by Bryson Ware, Auburn earned its fifth straight win by defeating UAB, 4-1 on Tuesday at Plainsman Park.

Bryson Ware recorded three of Auburn’s four hits and scored half of Auburn’s runs on a two-run home run in the bottom of the 4th inning. Cole Foster was the other Tiger who recorded a hit in a tough game that featured eight UAB pitchers.

The game got off to a slow start, as neither team could produce more than one hit through the first three innings. Auburn’s [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] led off the 2nd inning with a single up the middle, but could not advance past third base to give Auburn a lead.

[autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag] became Auburn’s second base runner in the 4th inning on a ground-ball blunder by UAB shortstop Gavin Lewis Jr. Two pitches later, Ware sent a moonshot to the video board in left-center field to put the Tigers on the board, 2-0. The home run was his team-leading seventh of the season.

Auburn starter [autotag]Tommy Vail[/autotag] carried the momentum from his team’s newfound lead by striking out the side in the ensuing inning to improve his count to seven strikeouts through four innings.

Auburn’s third run of the game scored on a misread by UAB third baseman Ben Abernathy. [autotag]Cole Foster[/autotag] hit a pop-up toward third base, and the baseball changed directions multiple times, causing Abernathy to misjudge the ball on its descent. When the ball landed, [autotag]Brody Moss[/autotag] scored from second base, and the play was officially ruled a double and gave Auburn a 3-0 lead in the 5th inning.

Vail’s no-hit bid stayed intact through 4.2 innings but came with endangerment. With two down in the 5th inning, Vail walked Gavin Lewis and John Marc Mullins. At that point, [autotag]Chase Allsup[/autotag] was called upon to cap the inning. He did so on one pitch, which was a ground out by Ben Abernathy to Cole Foster at shortstop. Vail’s night ended with eight strikeouts, two walks, and no hits through 4.2 innings of work.

In Auburn’s half of the 6th inning, Ware recorded his third hit of the night by hitting a triple to center field and was sent home on a sacrifice fly by Bobby Peirce one at-bat later to extend Auburn’s lead to 4-0.

It took seven full innings, but UAB was finally able to secure their first hit. To lead off the 8th inning, UAB’s Tyler Waugh hit a single through the left side to erase the combined no-hitter performed by Vail and Allsup. The Blazers were unable to cash the hit in for a run, as they left a runner stranded at first base to end the inning.

The Blazers scored their first and only run with two outs in the 9th inning. Christian Hall singled up the middle to score John Marc Mullins from third to cut Auburn’s deficit to 4-1. The Blazers brought the tying run up to the plate, but Allsup struck out the final batter to end the game.

Auburn improves to 10-1-1 while UAB falls to 4-8.

Auburn baseball will have a quick turnaround as they hit the road on Wednesday to face Jax State at Jim Case Stadium in Jacksonville. First pitch is set for 6 p.m. CT and can be seen on ESPN+.

Baseball roundup: Auburn sweeps Lipscomb in thrilling three-game set

This team just will not quit.

Auburn baseball’s hot streak continues after a three-game sweep over Lipscomb at Plainsman Park, which extends their streak to eight straight games without a loss.

Even though the Tigers earned the sweep, Lipscomb provided a challenge that measured just how solid Auburn’s lineup is. Auburn completed the task by earning two come-from-behind wins on Saturday and Sunday behind the bats of [autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag] and [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag].

In Auburn’s series-opening win over Lipscomb on Friday, the Tigers used two key offensive innings to propel themselves to victory. Bryson Ware broke the 1-1 tie with a solo home run in the 4th inning, and [autotag]Kason Howell[/autotag] capped the inning with a two-run double down the left field line. In the 7th inning, freshman [autotag]Chris Stanfield[/autotag] scored two on a double to left field.

Both teams combined to score 23 runs in Saturday’s middle game of the series. Bryson Ware hit a two-run blast to left field to tie the game at 11-11 in the 8th inning, which set up Ike Irish for a chance to walk it off in the 9th inning. With the bases loaded, the freshman singled up the middle to score [autotag]Josh Hall[/autotag] from 3rd to seal the comeback.

Sunday’s game featured much less offense than Saturday’s thriller, but it was a game that Lipscomb was in control of until the 8th inning. In repeating fashion, Ware hit a crucial home run in the 8th in Sunday’s game. Only this time, it was a three-run, go-ahead blast to put his team ahead, 4-3, which would be the final score.

Here’s a look at this weekend’s key players.

Auburn responded by tying the game in the 4th inning on three RBI singles by [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag], [autotag]Cooper McMurray[/autotag], and [autotag]Brody Moss[/autotag]. The Tigers then blew the game open in the 6th inning on three RBI singles and a fielders choice by [autotag]Mike Bello[/autotag] to put Auburn ahead, 8-3.

USC would gain some of those runs back in the 8th inning on a sacrifice fly by Carson Wells and a two-run double off of the left field wall by Adrian Colon-Rasado to trim the Tigers lead to 8-6. But, the trend continued in the bottom half of the inning when McMurray and Ware each hit two-run home runs to give Auburn the 12-6 win.

Auburn Baseball crushes North Alabama in first midweek tilt

Bobby Peirce, Bryson Ware, and Ike Irish lead the way as Auburn earns a win at Toyota Field in Madison.

New rules were introduced within SEC baseball this season, and it did not take long for Auburn to use them.

In the first midweek game of the 2023 season, Auburn traveled to Madison to face the North Alabama Lions in a neutral site affair at Toyota Field, home of the Rocket City Trash Pandas, the Double-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels. Auburn jumped out to a 6-0 1st inning lead and would cruise to an easy 13-1 victory in seven innings.

Reigning SEC Freshman of the Week, [autotag]Ike Irish[/autotag], got the Tigers on the board with a bases-loaded single to right field to score [autotag]Bobby Peirce[/autotag] from 3rd base to give Auburn the 1-0 lead. [autotag]Ryan Dyal[/autotag] and [autotag]Caden Hill[/autotag] followed Irish by also recording RBI singles in the inning. [autotag]Bryson Ware[/autotag] earned an RBI on a sacrifice fly while [autotag]Kason Howell[/autotag] plated a run on a fielder’s choice.

Peirce and [autotag]Brody Moss[/autotag] extended Auburn’s lead in the 3rd inning. Peirce scored two runs on a single down the left field line to push the Tigers’ lead to 8-0, and Moss scored Howell on a sacrifice fly with one out in the inning.

Auburn’s next three runs would come courtesy of the long ball. Peirce hit a solo shot in the 5th inning for his third RBI of the game to put Auburn ahead, 10-1. Ware joined the party in the 6th inning by hitting a two-run blast to extend Auburn’s lead to 12-1. Freshman [autotag]Chris Stanfield[/autotag] capped the scoring by singling home Foster in the 6th inning for his first collegiate RBI.

North Alabama’s lone run came in the 4th inning when Jackson Ferrigno hit a sacrifice fly to Kyle Machado from 3rd base to trim Auburn’s lead to 9-1 at that point in the game.

Peirce, Irish, and Ware each collected three hits on the night, with Peirce and Ware each plating three RBI. In his first start on the mound this season, senior [autotag]Konnor Copeland[/autotag] struck out six batters over 3.2 innings of work, allowing just three hits and one earned run. [autotag]John Armstrong[/autotag] and [autotag]Chase Isbell[/autotag] combined to strike out six batters over the final 3.1 innings to close the game.

Changes have been made to Auburn’s weekend schedule. It was announced late Tuesday night that Auburn’s weekend series against USC, which was originally scheduled to take place in Los Angeles, will now happen at Plainsman Park due to forecasted inclement weather expected in Southern California.

Game one of the series between the Tigers and Trojans is set for 6 p.m. CT on Friday.
