Auburn has a shot to roll into the regional final with a win Saturday night, and the Tigers are off and running against Florida State.
Auburn started the scoring with a sac fly in the second inning and added on with a 2-run home run from Brooks Carlson in the third inning. However, the big frame came in the fourth inning as the Tigers pushed 7 runs across.
After the first two runners got on to start the inning, Cole Foster laced a clean RBI double into left field. That was part of a stretch where the first 4 Auburn batters in the inning reached safely.
Foster stays feeling it! 🔥

When it was all said and done, Auburn had 7 runs on 5 hits and 4 walks with the Seminoles adding to the effort with 2 errors in the field. Now up 11-1, the Tigers can advance safely into the regional finals with a win.
Should Auburn hold on, they will next be in action at 7 pm ET on Sunday and looking for one win to advance to the Super Regionals.
