Bama beat UT 6-5. I did not see it but they trailed 5-3 going into the bottom of the 7th. A 3 run on 3 hit 7th won the game. Lafaele singled to right center and Grantham scored the winning run.

A great weekend of Tide sports.

Didn't get to watch the game.

Had to attend Church League basketball tournament one of my grandkids was playing in.

Got this information from Gametracker

Bama went into the bottom of the 7th trailing the Vols 5-3.

Bama scores 3 runs in bottom of 7th to beat Tenn 6-5.

Grantham was the hitting star driving in 5 runs with a HR and a Double.

Osorio went the distance for the win

Another fantastic finish against a ranked opponent.

Yeah, I missed it too. I kept checking Watch ESPN on my phone.  The first time it checked it Bama was up 3-0. The next time I checked it was tied 3-3. Next it was TN leading 5-3. Didn't know the outcome until I  got home and checked Gamatracker.  Great win. Also makes living in Tennessee much easier.

The 7th inning had a lot of fireworks in it. The home plate started dancing around on the umpire with some of his calls and then the home plate umpire called a Bama runner out at third on a blooper that was dropped by the left fielder and then her throw to third for a force out. Bama had runners at first and second on the blooper with one out. The throw to third by the left fielder was late but the home plate umpire, who had to cover third, called the runner out. That is when it got real nasty. I haven't figured out yet why CPM wasn't tossed from the game. The best part was when Lafaele got her winning hit though, it was a shot to right center to the wall with a runner at third and two out. Lafaele had not reached first base yet and the home plate umpire was already to third base leaving the stadium in a big hurry and he didn't check up until he reached the gate leaving the stadium down the left field line. There was a big crowd at the game so the crowd noise was very big as well. I am sure glad we didn't have to listen to their team sing Rocky Top.

Thanks for the description, Jamos (and Lee, and mull).  I missed it.

I just wish all of you had been there to witness it. There was a preacher standing in the isle next to yes doing everything to that ump but praying for him. I've never seen an umpire leave the field that quick. The other two umpires were still out on the field after the one had left. I can't wait to see CPM and ask him what all he said to "Ole Blue."
