KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – No. 19 Auburn and No. 1 Tennessee battled back and forth in the series finale with the Volunteers ultimately winning the decisive game, 5-3, Sunday in Knoxville.
Tied 3-3 with one out in the bottom of the eighth inning, Tennessee hit a two-run home run that proved to be the difference.
"Credit to our guys who didn't blink after Friday and pushed this series all the way to late Sunday to give us a chance to win this series." “I was so excited to get to the ballpark today with Joseph on the mound,” Thompson said. “We'll continue the same mindset and keep moving forward and try to put our best foot forward anytime we step on the field with an Auburn uniform on."
After allowing the home run, Gonzalez responded by retiring nine of the next 10 batters he faced. Tennessee put a pair of baserunners aboard with a two-out error and walk in the fourth, but the sophomore right-hander stranded them both.
