It’s been a universal constant with Auburn this season that the offense is pretty good, the defense is above average to really good and that pitching is the bump in the armor. Starting pitching has been pretty good except for a game here or there but all starting pitchers have gotten the game to the 5th inning before handing it off to the pen, and once that has happened, that’s where the trouble has sort of began. In Birmingham on Tuesday evening, Auburn saw its season so far in a single game. Joseph Gonzalez got the nod to start and the highly touted Freshman from Puerto Rico only had a perfecto going through 5 innings, striking out 7, before giving up a lead off double with the Tigers up 2-0.
