Title: Big Inning Lifts Alabama Softball to 8-0 Win Over Troy
Post by: Jamos on February 24, 2016, 07:52:00 PM
Alabama (11-1) needed just 90 minutes to dispatch Troy (7-4), helped in large part by a huge seven-run fourth inning that included home runs by Mari Cranek and Peyton Grantham.

It was very cold and very windy, but it didn't seem to bother either team. Bama started off slow but the Bama ladies finally got their timing on the Troy pitcher in the bottom of the 3rd and it was lights out after that.

Littlejohn was the starter and winning pitcher and did a good job. She started a little slow but seemed to get in rhythm with her pitches as the game progressed. They had base runners in the first and second innings but Littlejohn had good control and pitched out of the trouble.

Next up, Alabama hosts the Easton Bama Bash this weekend, welcoming No. 15 Arizona, No. 14 Tennessee and Marshall to Tuscaloosa. Action begins on Friday, Feb. 26 against the Wildcats at 6 p.m. CT.

Once again scheduling conflicts are at their best this weekend with gymnastics, basketball, baseball, and softball all playing in T-town this weekend. This is tough on the fans that have season tickets for multiple sports.
