It will be interesting to see how they start off. Hope we get a little long ball going on.

CMG is starting a freshman on the mound tonight, it will be a very interesting season this year. If these young pitchers can get off to a good start, I like Bama's chances.

I think it may take getting some games under their belts for them to find themselves, but I'd love to see those young pictures get off to a good start.

Gametime for Saturday's game has been moved up due to incoming rain.

We have the true freshman on the mound. It is a big step from HS to college but CMG thinks he is ready. He comes to Alabama highly recruited. I hope he has a good outing and get some confidence going for him.

The talk so far has been we will be a better hitting team this year. CMG has said that does not mean more HR's but expect more doubles with line drives hitting the outfield gaps. I am ready to see what the new bats will do. It has to help. Nike is out of the college bat business for now anyway. We should be a good offensive team.

We need a good strong series and get this year started right.

There is no score and no hits for either team after 2 1/2 innings. Bama coming to bat in the bottom of the 3rd. No score 0-0.

[pmull]

FAU leads 1-0 with Bama batting in the bottom of the 5th. Come on Bama. We need some hits.

[2Stater]

Now 5-0 FAU.

[pmull]

Now 5-0 FAU.

Our starting pitching was good. He gave up one run through 6 innings. Our reliver, Pilkington, gave up 4 runs in the 5th. A bigger concern is we have 2 hits and 0 runs batting in the 6th. We trail 5-0.

[pmull]

Bama gets 2 runs in the 7th. FAU leads 5-2 coming to bat in the 8th.

[pmull]

Bama loses 5-2. We get god starting pitching. We only had 4 hits and 2 costly errors.

We play again tomorrow at 10:00am.

Jamos was at the game and said early on that Bama was hitting the ball hard, but right at someone. It's a young team, tomorrow's another day.

Yeah, just got in from the game and I got cold. If not for a bad throw by the third baseman on a two out routine ground ball Bama wins this game. I like the lefty that started the game, he knows how to move the ball around on the batters. FAU is a good baseball team, or seemed that way tonight, they really go up to the plate swinging and play pretty good D.

[pmull]

Alabama is struggling again today against FAU. We are down 7-1 in the 8th. I think FAU has a good team but this is not a good way for us to start the season.
