In the circle, sophomore Kaylee Carlson got her second win for the season pitching two innings and only giving up four runs. The outing was not as dominate of a performance as she had against Western Kentucky on Friday, but it was enough to keep the Mountaineers off-balance.

In the first inning the Tigers scored nine runs featuring doubles from Jenna Abbott and Kasey Cooper. As a team, the Tigers scattered eight hits and batted around as the top of Auburn’s lineup was able to finish off the scoring tallying three more hits in the second go-around.

After no-run second inning, the Tigers bounced back putting up eight runs in the third, four coming off a huge grand slam from Abbott, her first career grand slam. Abbott finished the day 2-for-3 with six RBI, a new career high.

Auburn, as a team, capitalized with the bases loaded all weekend long as Abbott’s slam was the team’s third of the weekend.

With the lead well in hand, Myers decided to let his bench get some at-bats which gave way to more RBI opportunities. After Kendall Veach reached by hit by pitch, and a Jade Rhodes walk, sophomore Courtney Shea hit a pinch hit homerun to dead centerfield. For Shea, it was her first homer of the year and second of her career, giving the Tigers the 20-4 lead.
