I say we bring in Sarah Patterson as an honorary coach.  She knows a thing or 100 about beating Auburn.

Alabama has dominated this series, holding a 38-13 advantage against its instate rivals, including 15 straight victories. Last season, the Tide swept the Tigers in a doubleheader.

We need to change those numbers to 40-13 and a 17 game winning streak.

I hate walks, I hate walks, I hate walks, they always come back to bite you.

When I was coaching travel team softball there was a national statistic released saying that a leadoff walk scores 73% of the time.

I bet 73% is correct. A leadoff walk seems to always score.

Jackie Traina pitches 2 complete games.

Close to 250 pitches

Allowed a total of 5 hits in the 14 innings.

Her stock just went up as far as I'm concerned.

Great sweep of the Barn

17 in a row, complete dominance

Wow, two solid performances tonight by Traina and Hunt, quite a show from each of them. I have to mention Reilly Boccia as well, she was on base a lot and played solid defense at first.

These wins were big for Bama tonight. They have to be extremely tired from all of the games they have played the last two weeks and then go on the road and take two from your instate foe, kudos to the team. Roll Tide!!  #+
