Tennessee head coach Tony Vitello was ejected in the fifth inning of the Vols' series finale contest against Auburn on Sunday. No. 11 Auburn (33-15, 13-11 SEC) defeated No. 6 Tennessee (37-11, 14-10 SEC), 8-1, in a seven-inning game. Rankings reflect the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll. The Tigers won the SEC series, 2-1.

Before being suspended, Game 2 was a back-and-forth contest, with Tennessee’s Dalton Bargo hitting a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth to send the game into extra innings. That was an immediate response to Chase Fralick’s RBI single in the top of the ninth to give Auburn a 4-3 lead.
