Friday: "Walkoff Home Run Leads Baseball to 5-4 Win over Xavier on Opening Day"

After trailing 4-1, the Crimson Tide scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth, highlighted by Diodati’s walkoff roundtripper.  Woot.

I watched both games by the girls yesterday on my computer. They won both, beating Evansville 10-2 in 6 innings and then beating 8th ranked Va Tech 1-0 in a real pitcher's duel. Fouts with the win in that one. The Bama bash continues through the weekend in T-Town.

Woot.  Big win vs Va Tech.   :clap:

I am not sure how good Xavier is, but we won two tight ball games we could have lost. We almost gave yesterday's game away with errors in the 8th & 9th. The game ended with bases loaded and a bobbled ball at 2nd base resulted in a very close play at first for the final out.

Xavier is in the Big East Conference where they finished 3rd last year with a 15-11 record. At 28-2 they came up short of making the NCAA Tournament.

Defending NCAA Champ Miss St starts the season 0-2 dropping the first two games to Long Beach St. NCAA runner up Vanderbilt is 1-1 splitting their first two games with Oklahoma St. Arkansas is 1-1 against Illinois St. South Carolina is 1-1 against UNC Greensboro. Florida is 1-1 against Liberty.

It is a long season, but we need these early non-conference because the SEC season will be brutal.

The baseball team decided to make the third game a little easier on themselves, taking an early 5-0 lead.  They won the game 9-4 to complete the series sweep over Xavier.

They play a couple midweek tune-up games against in-state teams (JaxSt and Alabama St) before traveling to Austin for a 3-game series with Texas on the weekend.

 #+  Glad they continued winning.  Texas will test them, and 2 will find out how good they are.   :tinfoil:

Pitcher's duel, but Bama finally flinched.  We gave up a run in the 7th, and lost 1-0 to Texas.

Alabama missed an opportunity to beat #1 Texas in Game 1. Texas scored their only run in the 7th with a Single, Hit By Pitch, Pass Ball, Wild Pitch. We had 7 hits to their 5. We left 12 men on base to their 7. Tide starter Garrett McMillan went 6 strong innings allowing 3 hits and 0 runs. Tide reliever Dylan Ray took the loss going 2 innings giving up 2 hits and 1 run.

We play again today at 1:30 and Sunday at 1:00.

Bama wastes another good pitching performance losing 2-0 in Game Two.

We out hit Texas again 5-4 but we could not get a run across. We left 6 on base while UT only left 3.

Baseball has gotten back on track. After losing 4 in a row, they have beaten Troy 8-1 on Wednesday and Murray State twice 5-1 & -1. I am not sure how good Murray State is but they game in 8-0.

Bama plays Murray State again today at 1:00. They play 5 games next week, all at home, against Middle TN, North Alabama, and Binghampton (3 game series).

SEC play starts on 3/18 at home against Florida.

Bama beat #7 Ole Miss in a 12-10 slugfest on Saturday in 10 innings. Bama also beat Ole Miss on Friday. Bama wins the series and has a rare opportunity to get a sweep in Oxford.

Zane Denton hit a 2 run HR in the top of the 10th. Drew Williamson hit a grand slam in the 7th.

Bama improves to 20-12 (-5 SEC).

It is good we are winning but I was hoping the coach would build us back a little better by now. I guess it is a slow go. RTR!

My goodness, this baseball team is on a tear, fellas!

The Alabama baseball winning streak just found a new marquee moment.

The eighth straight Crimson Tide win came with a 6-3 final at No. 1 Tennessee. The Vols were the first SEC program to ever start conference play with 12 straight wins but it wouldn’t hit 13 after Friday night.

Tennessee (31-3, 12-1 SEC) had its 23-game winning streak end Tuesday against Tennessee Tech.

No. 24 Alabama (23-12, 8-5 SEC) haven’t lost since April 1 in the first game of the series with Texas A&M. It claimed the next two games against the Aggies, midweek games against Samford and Belmont with a sweep at No. 7 Ole Miss last week. It was the program’s first sweep in Oxford since 1997.

Whadaya know?   11-seed Alabama beat 6-seed Georgia in the first round of the SEC tournament this morning by a score of 5-3.   Things just get tougher from here.  The Tide plays 3-seed Arkansas tomorrow.
