Good Morning, Auburn Family. In its last home series of the regular season, the No. 5 Auburn baseball team (33-15, 13-11 SEC) hosts South Carolina (26-23, 5-19 SEC) for three games today through Saturday. First pitches at Plainsman Park are scheduled for tonight and tomorrow night at 6 p.m. CT and Saturday at 2:30 p.m.

“We started a journey of really trying to put this bookend around the last three weeks, so that started for us last week on the road with those four games,” head coach Butch Thompson said. “I don’t think it’s who we play, it’s how we play. I thought we played our hearts out last week, and that needs to continue for two more weeks.”
