The Mississippi State Bulldogs are getting ready to play their 2019 College World Series opener against Auburn.
The Bulldogs are favored to win, but the Tigers have been dangerous this postseason, so it should be an exciting way for both teams to kick off their quest for a title in Omaha.
As you can see below, the Bulldogs had legendary Mississippi State and MLB player Rafael Palmeiro wish them luck before first pitch:

Palmeiro is in Omaha for the tournament, so he’ll be rooting on the Bulldogs in person. The Bulldogs will take on the Tigers at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time on ESPN.
Who will win this all-SEC showdown? The victor will go on to play Vanderbilt in the second game, with the loser to take on Louisville to try to avoid elimination.
