Sorry I had to miss last night.  Lipscomb had a double header at home so I spent my evening there.

We need to get the bats cranked back up today. We had trouble scoring runs against UAB.

Who was Lipscomp playing?

Nothing for SA in 3rd.

Western Ky

Bama scores 1 in 3rd to take a 2-1 lead.

SA goes 1-2-3 in the 4th
Bama leads 2-1

Wolfe seems to be pitching a good game. We need to get him a few runs.

Yeah, I believe their run was unearned due to a throwing error by Reaves.

This game is moving right along. Bama goes 1-2-3 in 4th

SA goes 1-2-3 in top of 5th

Bama batting in 5th leading 2-1.

Another good inning by Wolfe.

Bama leaves the bases loaded in 5th, but score 1 more run.

Now lead SA 3-1

I hate leaving leaving all these runners on base. We need to start driving them in. Still 3-1 is not bad.

SA picks up 1 in top of 6.

Bama coming to bat leading 3-2

We need to have a big inning and put this thing away

Come on guys do your thing.

Bama draws a blank in the bottom of 6.

Still leads 3-2

Windsor now pitching in the 7th

SA scores another in 7th. Ties up score at 3.

Playing small ball.  Another Bama error lets the run score.

Those two errors account for 2 unearned runs. Errors are killing us.

We need to get our bats going. Top of the line up coming to bat.

We leave 2 more stranded and fail to score in 7th

Gama tied at 3

How many men have we left on base? It seems like 2 every inning.

1-2-3- for SA ib 8th

Time's running out.

Let's get those bats cracking.

Is gametracker stuck?

Seems like a long time between top and bottom of 8th.

Nothing for Bama in bottom of 8.

nothing for SA in top of 9th

Let's win this thing quickly with a walk off HR

Dugas leads off 9th with a walk, He has scored 2 of our 3 runs, need one more

Bama wins 4-3

Bottom of 9, Dugan walks, steals 2nd, scores on hit by Bennett.

Nice way to finish the game. It wasn't pretty but it was a win.

Roll Tide.

I think the both of you have a lot of fun, thanks again.

Yes thanks guys.  I always come along and read the threads later to get a synopsis of how the game went if I'm busy during the game.

I met Brock Bennet's high school coach last night.  This guy has a great story. He was not big enough or good enough to attract any college coach's  interest.  He came to Bama as a walk on to be the bull pen catcher.  Nobody gave him much of a chance to succeed.  Because of his great work ethic and his never-say-quit attitude he has developed himself into a top rung SEC catcher who leads the team in hitting with a .380 average.  

This is a great story about a fine young man.

Thanks guys. Lee and I have fun doing it.

I remember this story from last year. CMG said when he got to Alabama he could not hit the ball out of the infield. They say he is the hardest worker on the team.

That is a great story.

This is the kind of story that is wonderful to hear. 

Wow, the walk-ons at Bama. RTR!
