The comeback will have to wait. Weather in Omaha has resulted in the suspension of the Auburn vs. Louisville elimination game.
The Cardinals lead the Tigers 4-1 in the top of the fifth inning of the game, which is scheduled to resume just after noon eastern (11:03 a.m. CT) Wednesday. Louisville’s Bobby Miller has thrown 64 pitches in four innings. Bailey Horn got the start for Auburn but was replaced by Elliott Anderson in the fourth inning. Horn threw 65 pitches in 3.1 innings, allowing 4 runs (2 earned) on 3 hits and 3 walks. Anderson has issued a walk and recorded a strikeout in his 0.2-inning appearance. The Tigers are out-hitting the Cardinals 5-3, but have committed two fielding errors.
The game entered a rain delay at 3:55 p.m. ET. The suspension of the game was announced at 8:21 p.m. The announcement states that Game 8 – Vanderbilt vs. Mississippi State – will be played 65 minutes after the conclusion of Auburn vs. Louisville.
