Florida takes rubber match vs Auburn behind explosive comeback

The Gators defeated Auburn 17-8 in Sunday’s rubber match, taking the series over the Tigers and improving to 3-0 in SEC series and 7-0 in series overall this season.

Florida (24-5, 7-2 SEC) posted its third comeback of five runs or more this season after the Gators scored 14 unanswered runs in their last four innings at the plate.

Florida’s Sunday starter Jac Caglianone struggled on the mound, allowing four runs, six hits, and four free passes in 3.1 innings pitched. Tiger batters had Caglianone timed up, and the three walks and one hit by pitch wasn’t helping the Gators’ two-way player.
