Area coaches come out and clinic with @Drew_Moulton and @WMU_Football coaches this coming Monday May 11th at 7pm. Entry is free and pizza will be provided thanks to our sponsor @GameOne_USA and local rep @JPCPA17
Peyton Steele needs to be back in the Alabama lineup full-time. Obviously, we don't know Justin Osterhouse's status, but (1) Steele has been hitting well since Sunday in Austin, and (2) it is very refreshing to watch a player on this team take runs off the board defensively.
ALABAMA WINS!
#8 Tide (26-8) gives Head Coach Rob Vaughn his 100th win at The Capstone, clobbering Samford 16-2 in 7 innings.
Bama got homers from Luke Vaughn (6th), Eric Hines (2nd) and Chase Kroberger, his first collegiate💣.
18th straight home win for the Tide.
Final: No. 8 Alabama 16, Samford 2 F/7
Anthony Pesci picks up the final three outs tonight as the Crimson Tide improves to 26-8 on the season and the 100th win for Rob Vaughn at Alabama.

Freshman Tuscaloosa native Eric Hines led the charge offensively, going 3-for-3 with a home run, three RBIs, and a walk.
Fellow freshman Chase Kroberger went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a pair of walks.
Jason Torres went 3-for-4 with a couple of RBIs, and Justin Lebron went 2-for-4 with an RBI and his 25th stolen base of the season.
Final line for JT Blackwood: 4.2 IP, 6 H, 2 ER, 0 BB, and 3 Ks on 59 pitches.

@PesciAnthony gets his first extended action in college and passes with flying colors. 65% strikes, weak contact, good body language. Great job, kid. @AlabamaBSB
B7 I Anthony Pesci, who picked up the final out of the 6th, works around a baserunner in the 7th, notching a strikeout to end a scoreless inning.
10-3, Alabama
