The anthem was sang and the lineups were announced. Surprisingly, it was Auburn to take the field first.
"Stanford was the home team last night." Noah explained. "To make it fair, they switch. Tomorrow, they'll go back to being the home team again."
I looked around the stadium full of Stanford fans with very few Auburn navy blue and orange shirts. I just very much doubt that it mattered if they got to bat in the bottom half of the inning.
Especially when Stanford came out blazing hot. The leadoff batter got on with a single, and Zeke followed that up with a home run. As we were still talking about his blast to left field, the third batter got on with a double and then Bradley Thompson drove him home with his own two-run homer.
