Ole Miss continuted a trend this year of the visiting team getting the win in their opening game as they took down Auburn 5-1. The Rebels got on the board early, stringing together 3 hits after Joseph Gonzalez got 2 quick outs. Following that, Gonzalez settled down, only giving up 1 more run until the 6th when Ole Miss got another 2. Carson Skipper came in and was able to shut down Ole Miss from there and held them at 5.
Offensively, Auburn never could get Dylan DeLucia sized up, only getting 1 hit through 6 innings.
