Mason Maners hit a walk-off homer to start the bottom of the ninth inning and lift No. 13 Auburn to a 7-6 win in the series opener against Austin Peay Friday afternoon at Plainsman Park.
"It came down to some resilience by our guys," head coach Butch Thompson said. "Big swings by (Christian) Hall and Maners right there were huge.
"Every bit of this game looked like what we're going to see for the next 10 weekends," Thompson added. "That's what we advertised and that's absolutely what we saw. These are the kinds of games, that good, tight game, that you learn more and grow more by being a part of. Any time you find a way to get that last big swing and win one like this, hopefully that's great for development."
