The steady downpour of rain that has covered the Auburn area throughout Friday has forced the Tigers to push back Friday night's softball and baseball openers against Alabama and Ole Miss, respectively.
Baseball, which was originally slated to open at 6 p.m. at Plainsman Park, and softball, which was supposed to begin at 7:30 p.m., are now both expected to toss their first pitches at a little after 8 p.m.
And the thunderstorms predicted for Saturday night could alter things even more.
Baseball has already changed its Saturday and Sunday games into a Saturday doubleheader beginning at noon.
