Auburn splits doubleheader

AUBURN - Six hours.

From the first pitch to the last, that's how long it took the Auburn Doubledays to split a doubleheader with Lowell at Falcon Park Monday. While the first game wasn't even close, a 6-1 decision that went to Lowell - it took nearly 2.5 hours to complete. In the evening contest, the Doubledays weren't about to embark on a road trip to Wappingers Falls without at least one good note.

They weren't about to make it easy either. After all, the series was on the line and historically, the Doubledays are nothing if not exciting at home.
