Hey everyone. Your Auburn Tigers of baseball notoriety rallied for a 3-2 win against Alabama on Thursday night. Brian Fletcher, whom you see pictured above, drew a bases-loaded walk in the 10th inning to seal the deal.

Fellow Advertiser hack Tim Gayle had this to say about last night's drama:

AUBURN -- The seventh blown save of the season was likely the final blow to Alabama's Southeastern Conference title hopes.

Brian Fletcher drew a bases-loaded walk in the bottom of the 10th to force across the winning run as Auburn defeated the 10th-ranked Crimson Tide 3-2 at Plainsman Park on Thursday night.

The loss, coupled with LSU's victory over Mississippi State, Florida's win over Kentucky and Mississippi's win over Arkansas, dropped Alabama to fourth place in the standings, a game and a half behind the Tigers and a half-game behind the Gators and the Rebels with two games remaining.

Mrs. Jet let some jelly slip out of her PBJ ... I grabbed a sofa cushion, popped her with it, and yelled "NO DROPS!"
