Tyler Myers is shifting from a comeback story to one of Mike Bianco’s top relievers with every appearance.
The senior right-hander, who is a year removed from Tommy John surgery, came in the top of the seventh inning after Auburn cut the Ole Miss lead to one run and got the crucial out to maintain the lead.
Myers returned in the eighth inning and kept the Tigers off the board, helping the No. 4 Rebels pick up the 6-5 win and securing their first Southeastern Conference sweep of the season on Saturday at Oxford-University Stadium.
In five appearances this season, Myers has an earned run average under 2.
