TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - The No. 21-ranked University of Alabama baseball team (19-8) took home the 4-3 victory over South Alabama (13-11) in walk-off fashion, Wednesday evening at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. After a back-and-forth battle, the Tide came away with the win in the bottom of the ninth thanks to an RBI single from Brock Bennett to plate Taylor Dugas.
"One thing that's encouraging, that this team has been able to do, is find ways to win games," UA head coach Mitch Gaspard said. "Midweek games can get tough at times, but I thought we battled and we did a good job in the ninth inning."
Bennett, who sacrificed himself twice previously on the night, was allowed to swing away in the final inning, knocking a grounder up the middle to bring around Dugas from second. Bennett ended his night 2-for-3 with two RBI and two sac bunts. Dugas also excelled, going 1-for-1 on the night with three runs and a career-high four walks, reaching base all five plate appearances
