Auburn baseball vs. Coastal Carolina: Live coverage of Auburn Super Regional game two
Auburn baseball suffered a tough loss on Friday night/early Saturday morning to the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, 7-6 in 10 innings, to fall behind 1-0 in the Auburn Super Regional.
The Tigers trailed 6-1 in the 4th inning before chipping away in the 5th and 6th inning, and ultimately tying the game at 6-6 with an Eric Snow solo home run in the 7th inning to force extra innings. Caden Bodine hit a solo home run in the 10th inning to seal the win for the Chanticleers. He, along with teammate Blagen Pado, homered twice in the game for Coastal Carolina.
Friday's game, which got underway at 8:06 p.m. CT, was delayed in the middle of the game by one hour and 46 minutes and ended in the early morning hours of Saturday. Auburn head coach Butch Thompson hopes that his team can find confidence despite the quick turnaround.
'We have confidence and resilience,' Thompson said postgame. 'We have to put our head down, get some sleep and get back out here. Quick turnaround, get back out here and do everything we can to try to win a baseball game and extend the season.'

After striking out five batters and allowing zero runs in his start against NC State last Sunday to clinch the Auburn Regional title, freshman Andreas Alvarez has earned the right to start on the mound for the Tigers in game two of the Auburn Super Regional. He will rival Coastal Carolina right-hander Jacob Morrison, who is second on the team in strikeouts with 89 entering Saturday's game.
Last night's game was delayed for nearly two hours due to thunder and heavy rain in the area. Will weather play a factor in game two? According to Accuweather, there is a 40% chance of rain during the 2 and 3 p.m. CT hours, with the greatest risk coming during the 4 p.m. CT hour at 51%. Counties north of Lee County are under Severe Thunderstorm Watches currently, so the weather will be worth monitoring.

Kerry Carpenter crushes key home run in Detroit Tigers' 6-3 win vs new-look Twins

Not only did the Minnesota Twins part ways with one-third of the players on their roster, they also shipped out some of their best players at the trade deadline: closer Jhoan Duran to the Philadelphia Phillies, reliever Griffin Jax to the Tampa Bay Rays and shortstop Carlos Correa to the Houston Astros. Two years ago, the Twins won the American League Central. In 2025, the Detroit Tigers are the AL Central leaders, and looked like in Monday night. The Tigers reminded their division foes of their current dominance in a 6-3 win over the new-look Twins on Monday, Aug. 4, in the opener of a three-game series at Comerica Park. The Twins didn't go down easy, but the Tigers (66-48) pulled away with three runs in the sixth inning, including a 437-foot two-run home run from Kerry Carpenter off right-handed reliever Noah Davis with the fans chanting his first name. Carpenter celebrated the key home run by flipping his bat, holding both arms in the air and trotting to first base. After Gleyber Torres tied the game on a groundout, Carpenter refused to swing at back-to-back pitches for balls before demolishing a 94 mph sinker at the top of the strike zone for a two-run homer, putting the Tigers ahead, 5-3. It was his 19th homer in 85 games this season. The Tigers padded their lead in the seventh inning, thanks to Dillon Dingler's solo home run off right-handed reliever Erasmo Ramírez. He pulled a down-and-in sinker over the wall in left field. It was Dingler's 10th homer. Dingler is hitting .274 with a .749 OPS across 85 games in his first full season in the big leagues. [ MUST LISTEN: Make "Days of Roar" your go-to Tigers podcast, available anywhere you listen to podcasts (Apple, Spotify) ] Casey Mize's quality start Right-hander Casey Mize allowed three runs on four hits and zero walks with four strikeouts in six innings, throwing 67 pitches. He entered Monday's game with an 11.42 ERA in his last three starts — following a 2.63 ERA in his first 15 starts. This was a step forward. In 2025, Mize now owns a 3.50 ERA in 19 starts. The Twins tagged Mize for three solo home runs: Ryan Jeffers hit a 94.4 mph sinker for a 420-foot homer in the first inning; Trevor Larnach hit a splitter for a 434-foot homer in the fifth inning; Matt Wallner hit a splitter for a 437-foot homer in the sixth inning. Both splitters were poorly executed pitches. The homer from Wallner landed in the shrubs in center field. Aside from the homers, Mize gave up just one hit on a single to Edouard Julien in the sixth inning, then erased Julien from the bases when Austin Martin grounded into a double play. Wenceel Pérez's development The Tigers fell behind on the scoreboard, but Wenceel Pérez revived them when he hit a two-run home run off right-hander Travis Adams with one out in the fifth inning. Until then, Adams had shut out the Tigers. The Pérez homer tied the game, 2-2. It was Pérez's ninth home run in 54 games (and 197 plate appearances) in his second MLB season — following nine homers in 112 games (and 425 plate appearances) as a rookie last season. Not only has Pérez developed in the power department from Year 1 to Year 2, but he has also improved his batting average (.242 to .262) and his OPS (.683 to .805). For the Twins, Adams allowed two runs on four hits and zero walks with seven strikeouts in five innings, throwing 63 pitches. He generated 16 whiffs on 33 swings for an incredible 48.5% whiff rate.

What odds does ESPN's FPI give LSU football of making the College Football Playoff

According to ESPN's 2025 College Football Power Index, LSU has a 30.3% of making the College Football Playoffs. The Tigers' chances rank No. 13 nationally and No. 7 among SEC teams. Teams from the conference take up seven of the top 13 spots, followed by three from the Big Ten and two from the ACC. With the top-ranked transfer portal class in 2025 and a bevy of critical returners, head coach Brian Kelly fully expects to make the cut and compete for championships in the conference and nationally. Those returners include quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, running back Caden Durham, as well as linebackers Whit Weeks and Harold Perkins. LSU opens the season on the road against Clemson. In what will likely be a top-10 matchup in week one, we'll get a feel for where the Tigers stand against one of the nation's top teams. Fellow Heisman contender quarterback Cade Klubnik will lead an offense stacked with talent at wide receiver against a retooled LSU defense.
