Auburn Baseball finishes exhibition schedule with a win

AUBURN, Ala. (EETV) -- Saturday afternoon, Auburn defeated Clemson, 11-7, in 12 innings at Plainsman Park to end their exhibition schedule. 

Auburn hit well, scoring in seven straight innings and racking up 17 hits across the game. 

​​"These last two weeks have been good, playing against outside competition," head coach Butch Thompson said. "We got a ton of guys in the ballgame, and both teams will take something from it. We were just competitive today with Clemson. I like how many guys we can run into a ballgame."

Twenty-one players got a plate appearance, and 13 of them got a hit, including two home runs from Bryson Ware and Copper Self. 

Pitching in the game was a positive as well. Auburn had 12 pitchers take the mound across the 12 innings, having a total of 15 strikeouts across the game. 

Next, Auburn will hold its Blue vs. Orange World Series. Teams will be drafted Monday, and the three-game series will take place Wednesday through Friday at Plainsman Park.
