Miami Makes Six Errors but Advances in Series

Danny Buxbaum’s two-run double in the seventh inning helped Miami overcome six errors as the top-seeded Hurricanes stayed alive Monday in the College World Series with a 7-5 victory over Auburn.

“That’s probably about as ugly a win as we’ve ever had,” said a relieved Hurricanes Coach Jim Morris.

Miami (49-13) advanced to today’s elimination game against the loser of Monday night’s game between Oklahoma and Arizona State.

Auburn (44-21) was ousted, losing both games in its first CWS appearance since 1976.

Miami took advantage of an error for four unearned runs in the first. The Hurricanes scored three times in the seventh.
