Baseball: Auburn sweeps Ole Miss, will play Alabama in SEC tournament first round

Auburn completed a three-game sweep at Ole Miss by winning 11-1 Saturday, showing no letdown after clinching the SEC West Friday night.

Trent Mummey
hit a home run and had four RBIs. Grant Dayton (8-2) gave up one run in five innings for the win. The Tigers (38-17, 20-10 SEC) have won six straight, the longest streak in the SEC.

What's next? Alabama in the first round of the SEC tournament in Hoover at 10:30 a.m. ET Wednesday. The Tigers are the second seed. The Crimson Tide (34-21, 15-15 SEC), which swept Tennessee this weekend, is the seventh seed.

The teams split the regular season matchups 2-2. Auburn won 8-6 in the Capital City Classic in Montgomery. Alabama won two of three in the teams' SEC series in Tuscaloosa in early April.

I expected better TV coverage. CSS is very limited and they've got a good portion of the games.

Other than that, looks good. Get 'em Tigers!
