For the second day in a row, it was an error that led to an Auburn loss.
Heading into the fifth, neither Auburn nor Mizzou had recorded a single hit. That changed when Mizzou RF Trey Harris stepped up to the plate with the bases loaded in the top half of the inning.
After an error and two walks loaded the bases, Harris dug in with two outs to face Auburn pitcher Tanner Burns. Harris drove the 0-1 pitch over the towering left field wall to bring four runs home for Mizzou — all unearned. The grand-slam paved the way for Mizzou’s 5-0 victory in Sunday’s rubber match to win the weekend series over Auburn.
