Auburn is completing its final home SEC baseball series of the season, and the Tigers have decided to send things out in style! After a Thursday demolition of South Carolina, Auburn delivered another dramatic win on Friday.
The game was back-and-forth the entire way, including South Carolina erasing a 10-8 deficit with runs scored in the top of the 8th and the top of the 9th innings. That sent the game into the bottom of the 9th tied at 10-all, and the Tigers quickly went to work.
A hit by pitch, a groundout and a single put Auburn runners on 1st and 3rd with just 1 out and brought third baseman Eric Guevara to the plate. Guevara was hot all afternoon with a double and a home run to his credit, but he would go with a much softer touch for the game-winner.
That’s because the Tigers used Guevara to execute a picture-perfect squeeze play. He pushed the bunt into no-man’s land between the pitcher’s mound and first base, allowing the winning run to score with ease.
It’s Auburn’s first walk-off win since February and just the 2nd of the season for the Tigers:

Auburn will have one more game at home — a midweek contest vs. Jacksonville State — to close the season before facing Ole Miss in Oxford next weekend.
After that, it will be full steam ahead into the SEC Baseball Tournament and hopes set on a College World Series appearance this summer.
