Auburn right fielder Brooks Carlson hit a solo home run over the right-center field fence in the bottom of the fourth inning.

Things got really exciting once Carlson reached the dugout.

After Carlson touched home plate and as he was about to enter the dugout, Auburn's Bryson Ware pull a bald eagle mask over Carlson's head. Carlson proceeded to dance around in the dugout with the mask encompassing his head.

The mask was used again after Auburn shortstop Brody Moore hit a solo home run in the fifth inning.
