Southern Miss baseball score vs. Penn: Live updates from Auburn Regional's deciding game
AUBURN, Ala. — Southern Miss baseball will be out to score a place in the NCAA Tournament super regionals for the second consecutive season when it takes on Penn in the deciding game of the Auburn Regional.
The No. 2 seed Golden Eagles turned a one-run game into an 11-2 blowout of the No. 4 Quakers late Sunday evening to force Monday's decider. After dropping their opener of the regional to Samford on Friday, they've now beaten Auburn, Samford and Penn to put themselves within a game of advancing.
Penn, one of the tournament's surprise packages to this point, has never been to the super regional round. The Quakers (34-15) took a 2-1 lead into the sixth inning of Sunday's contest against the Golden Eagles (44-18) before a bevy of defensive mistakes and an eight-run ninth inning allowed USM to turn the game into a blowout.
