Series Even Between No. 18 BC and No. 25 Auburn
March 06, 2021 | Baseball
AUBURN, Ala. – No. 18 Boston College baseball suffered a 16-1 setback to No. 25 Auburn at Plainsman Park on Saturday afternoon. The Eagles head into Sunday's rubber-match at 7-2, while the Tigers are 7-3.
Three two-out walks loaded the bases against junior right-hander Emmet Sheehan (Darien, Conn.) in the bottom of the first and Auburn jumped at the opportunity. A base hit by right fielder Bryson Ware against the shift plated the first run of the game and designated hitter Cam Hill followed with a grand slam.
Sheehan (2-1) briefly bounced back with a 1-2-3 inning in the second, but quickly ran into trouble in the third; issuing an 11-pitch walk to the leadoff man after getting ahead 0-2 and then hit the next batter, while again leading 0-2. He was pulled with two runs in, two men aboard and nobody out in the third and finished with a final line of eight runs allowed on three hits and four walks with one strikeout; his first batter faced.
Right-hander Mason Barnett (1-0) twirled 5.1-scoreless innings for Auburn with two hits allowed and two walks, yielding one unearned run, while striking out three.
First baseman Tyler Miller drove in six runs on a 3-for-3 day, including a three-run home run, with three runs scored. Third baseman Rankin Woley score five runs in a 2-for-2 game with a walk and was twice hit by a pitch. Catcher Stevan Williams scored three times, walked twice, drove in two and finished 2-for-3.
