The Weekend Review - The Alabama Series
Auburn @ Alabama
Friday: 19-5 W
Saturday G1: 5-0 W
Saturday G2: 20-5 W
Let’s just hit the highlights from what happened this weekend:
Friday, Auburn tied its highest run out put vs. Alabama and also tied the largest margin of victory against the Tide.
Saturday G1 was the first Auburn shutout of Alabama since the 1990 season, the first series win since 2012 and the first series win in Tuscaloosa since 2004 and was Tanner Burns first SEC win.
Saturday G2 was all the more glorious as it was the first series sweep in Tuscaloosa since the College World Series team of 1976, the largest beating Auburn has ever given Alabama in the history of the series and the most runs Auburn has ever scored on the Tide.
