In a thrilling matchup at the College World Series, the Mississippi State Bulldogs battle back from a late deficit to defeat the Auburn Tigers in dramatic fashion. In the bottom of the ninth inning, with Mississippi State trailing by one run, the Bulldogs' leadoff batter, Jackson Fristoe, ropes a double off the outfield fence to ignite the rally. "Let's go, come on, I'm serious, let's go, come on," Fristoe exclaims to his teammates, determined to mount a comeback. The next batter, Logan Tanner, works a walk, putting the tying run on base. Then, Justin Foscue steps up and blasts a two-run double down the line, evening the score at 4-4 and sending the Mississippi State dugout into a frenzy. Auburn shortstop Brody Moore records the first out on a sacrifice fly, but the Bulldogs have the tying run in scoring position. The tension builds as the next hitter, Landon Jordan, hits a ground ball to the third baseman. However, the throw sails high, allowing the go-ahead run to score and giving Mississippi State a 5-4 lead. The Tigers are not done yet, as the next batter reaches on an error by the second baseman, putting runners on the corners with one out.
