I love great pitching more when have a run or two

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Tanner Burns is one gutsy pitcher!  What a way to compete!!!

Come on Tigers....back him up with some runs!!!

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Nothin' doin' for Auburn. Another runner left on base.

Top of the 7th. No score.

I'm getting uneasy.

[AU64 10,122]

AU batters helping the UT pitcher...swinging at too many first or second pitches...guy is averaging 10 pitches per inning.....and Burns is over 100 pitches.

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Burns is done at 111 pitches tonight. He leaves with a shut-out going through 6 2/3 innings.

Elliott Anderson takes over.

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Anderson somewhat shaky but AU gets the 3rd out on a great play at 3rd.

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Holland with two bad throws in that inning. Hope that doesn’t continue. Come on bats.

Here comes the bull 

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Gosh Almighty this is a great game! 

TN commits 3 errors and AU takes advantage.

2-0 AU

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Bottom of the 8th. Greenhill just does his thing.

Come on Tigers.....an insurance run or two would make me feel better.

[AU64 10,122]

Meanwhile the ladies beat the aggies 7-6.....Martin got beat up pretty well but went the distance giving up 12 hits.

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Stallings finally out of the game. He was terrific. 

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

AU leaves 2 more stranded....

On to the top of the 9th. IIRC TN has the middle of the order up.

End it here.
