Baseball vs Jacksonville State

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

No score bottom 5. Copeland on the mound and great outing thus far. Thru 5 now. Conner at 66 pitches with 7 down in a row. Looks like a pitchers duel tonight and going to 6.

Jax State making a pitching change after 89 pitches. Great job. Best against Auburn this year. Obviously on a pitch count tonight.

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

Copeland 5 innings, 2 hits, 6 strike outs. Herberholtz now on the mound.

1 nothing Jax State on an error and past ball. Going to T7

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

2-1 Auburn on a Foster single RBI and a Kirby ground rule double. Make it 4-1 on a double from Irish. Productive 7th. Going to B7. 
 

Always hate these games. Love and need them at the same time. Have a tendency to give us their best while we tweak and experiment a bit. These teams are not slouches. Jacksonville has an SEC win vs GA this year.

Chase on the mound now and struggling. 2 men on with one out. Will Cannon coming in.

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

Great work from Cannon stranding runners on 2nd and 3rd. Going to 8 leading 4-1.

BTW, anyone planning a trip to Auburn soon? Highly recommend Zazu in Opelika for dinner. Tried it for first time last night. Old tavern atmosphere. Food and service excellent.

Leave to stranded going to B8. J State visits us on May 18. 

1 down in 8th on fly out. Walks batter 2 after full count and hate that. No one throwing in our BP. Out 2 with a K. Auburn pitchers have struck out a dozen tonight. Out 3 on ground sends us to 9 and need insurance.

Cole on base with single. 4 hit night for Cole. Kirby hit on wrist puts 2 on. Ike strikes out chasing low pitch. 2 out after Bryson flies out. Great at bat Hill puts bases loaded. Standfeild singles and 2 score….thank you!

Need 3 outs. 6-1 Tigers

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

Will coming back on to finish this thing out tonight.

[SaltyTiger 8,574]

6-3 on a little bottom 9 noise….WDE!!!
