Ole Miss Baseball Score: Utermark Leads Win Over Auburn in Super Regional Opener

Ole Miss baseball score: the Rebels beat Auburn in the Super Regional opener and moved within one game of the College World Series. Judd Utermark drove the offense with 2 RBIs and a run, and Ole Miss now needs one more win to advance.

Judd Utermark Sparks Ole Miss

Utermark set the pace for Ole Miss with production that showed up in the biggest spots. He finished with 2 RBIs and scored once, giving the Rebels an early edge in a game they needed to take control of immediately.

Brayden Randle matched that output with 2 RBIs and a run, while Collin Reuter added 2 RBIs and a run of his own. Ole Miss spread the damage across the order instead of leaning on one bat, and that balance gave Auburn little room to recover.

Auburn Faces the Pressure

Mason McCraine was Auburn’s most productive bat in the opener, posting 2 RBIs and 2 runs. Chase Fralick and Chris Rembert each drove in a run, and Bristol Carter scored twice as Auburn tried to keep pace.

That was not enough to erase the deficit Ole Miss built. Dom Decker, Hayden Federico and Austin Fawley each scored a run for the Rebels, adding to a lineup that kept turning traffic into runs and left Auburn chasing the game.

One Win From Omaha

The win put Ole Miss one victory from the College World Series, the clearest postseason leverage available in a super regional. The Rebels already handled the opener, and the result shifts all the pressure to Auburn with the series now tilted toward Ole Miss.

What happened next for Ole Miss is straightforward: one more win sends the Rebels on. The opener gave them the cushion they needed, and the box score showed why — multiple players drove in runs, multiple players crossed the plate, and Auburn could not keep the Rebels from piling up enough offense to take the first step.
