Title: Alabama Baseball Beats MVSU 8-3 - Play No. 25 Troy Tonight Post by: pmull on May 08, 2013, 08:07:46 AM Alabama gets 14 hits and easily beats a team we were expected to beat. We play Troy tonight. They are No. 25 and playing well. A win over a ranked non conference team at this time of year will help us in our post season seeding.
Quote Every starter in the Alabama lineup recorded at least one base hit and Austen Smith and Ryan Blanchard homered as the Crimson Tide defeated the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils, 8-3, Tuesday night at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. The win boosts Alabama's record to 28-21 overall, and the loss drops the Delta Devils to 5-42. "Our focus goes to Troy tomorrow; they're a really good baseball team who's playing really hot and well," Gaspard said. "We got our guys ready to go for a big game tomorrow." The Alabama Crimson Tide returns to Sewell-Thomas Stadium for its final midweek game of the season to take on the No. 25 Troy Trojans. First pitch is set for 6:05 p.m. CT. Alabama will start sophomore lefty Taylor Guilbeau (3-1, 2.97), and the Trojans will start RHP Jeremy McGowan (0-0, 3.60). http://www.rolltide.com/sports/m-basebl/recaps/050713aaa.html Title: Re: Alabama Baseball Beats MVSU 8-3 - Play No. 25 Troy Tonight Post by: pmull on May 08, 2013, 08:40:16 PM Alabama beats Troy 11-2.
A good win over a ranked team. Missouri visits Tuscaloosa this weekend for three games.

A sweep of Mizzou would really be sweet.

No. 29 is not bad and will get you a # 2 seed in a regional. That is good in most leagues. In the SEC we have 7 teams with RPI's better than us. Arkansas which has been a Top 25 team all year is behind us at # 37. As discussed in another thread our team has made a big improvement since last year but we need to be in the top third of the league and hosting a regional.
