Vols declaw Tigers with another run-rule win, 19-5, take series victory 2-1

Tennessee followed its 12-2, run-rule beatdown on Saturday with an even more impressive offensive performance, as it hit six home runs, again, hit another grand slam and beat Auburn 19-5 in the series-securing win.

The Vols went down in order in the top of the first against Auburn starter Will Cannon, but that would end up the only scoreless half inning of the game for the bats.

The Tigers jumped on Vols’ starter Zander Sechrist immediately with two singles and a three-run home run from its first three batters, but Sechrist settled down and sat down the next three hitters in order to end the top half of the first.
