Perhaps 2011 won’t be such a rebuilding year for the reigning SEC West champion Auburn baseball team.

Former Auburn outfielder Trent Mummey hit a walk-off grand slam Sunday night to cap off a 7-3 win for the Aberdeen Ironbirds, the Baltimore Orioles’ single-A, short-season affiliate.

The first Auburn Tiger selected in this year’s Major League Baseball draft is the latest to sign a professional contract.

As expected, Hunter Morris’ career at Auburn is over.

It took one of the most successful seasons in program history to bring back the crowds Auburn envisioned when it revamped Plainsman Park 15 years ago.

Two more Tigers heard their names called Wednesday on the Major League Baseball Draft’s final day.

Trent Mummey and Hunter Morris were both taken aback Tuesday afternoon as they waited to see where they would respectively land on the second day of the Major League Baseball Draft.

Justin Fradejas, Ryan Jenkins, Hunter Morris and Trent Mummey were each voted to the 2010 NCAA Auburn Regional All-Regional Team.
