The inclement weather that forced Saturday's doubleheader was nothing compared to the storm Auburn brought with them to Bryan-College Station against Texas A&M.

For the first time since March 21, the Aggies have dropped an SEC series. It was due to an explosive performance from the Tigers at the plate, in which they secured a combined 28 hits and 23 runs through two wins over Texas A&M at Olsen Field to begin the weekend's festivities.

While the series-opening 18-5 run-rule wasn't pretty by any means, there were bright spots with Gavin Grahovac's multi-home run performance and freshman Jorian Wilson securing his 12th homer of the season. Game 2 saw much improvement from the Aggies overall, as they only allowed nine hits and three earned runs. Right-hander Aiden Sims secured four strikeouts, while Gavin Lyons had another impressive outing of two strikeouts and just two hits allowed in 4.0 innings in relief.

In the end, Caden Sorrell's 44th career home run and impressive at-bats from Travis Chestnut and catcher Bear Harrison weren't enough to topple one of the hottest teams in college baseball. The Aggies will return to Olsen Field and aim to avoid the sweep at 1 p.m. CT on Sunday.

Here are some of the best social media reactions from Saturday's action between Texas A&M and Auburn at Blue Bell Park:

Auburn sweeps the DH on Saturday​



FINAL | No. 8 @AuburnBaseball clinches a massive road series win over No. 7 @AggieBaseball with a 5-4 victory. Chase Fralick finished off a big day with two homers in the win, while Jake Marciano/Jackson Sanders did their part on the mound.

TrackMan says controversial pitch was a strike​



FWIW -- fans were livid, as was Michael Earley, but that strike three on Grahovac WAS inside the strike zone square on TrackMan.

Tough outing for the Aggies on Saturday​



Toughest day of the season so far for Texas A&M as Auburn sweeps the double-header.

Aggies had a really tough time putting pressure on the Tiger pitching staff early in innings. Chris Hacopian was inches away from winning the game in the bottom of the 9th.

Big Sunday ahead. https://t.co/2dM9F32gps

Texas A&M drops both on Saturday, and Earley will not be present for Sunday's matchup​



A&M gets swept in a Saturday DH and drops its first series since Georgia.

Aggies had the tying run 90 feet away, but they failed to erase an early 5-0 deficit.

They’ll be without their skipper in tomorrow’s salvage attempt as Earley was ejected in the ninth. https://t.co/VfBvRAoXoc

Greatness in the making for Wilson​



Make it 12 homers for Jorian Wilson.

Texas A&M had its chances, but couldn't capitalize to force the rubber match​



FINAL.

There were some tense moments later but Auburn sweeps through double header with a 5-4 victory.

Their 5th SEC series victory in a row for Auburn as they inch closer to a top 8 seed.

Tale of two games on Saturday​



Tale of two games. Embarassig pitching performance in game one and a pitiful offensive performance in game two. Gotta salvage the series tomorrow.

Auburn wasn't shying away at the plate this weekend​
