The Alabama Crimson Tide broke their four game losing streak on Wednesday behind stellar pitching from Jacob McNairy and a season high 15 hit attack, defeating Troy 8-1. McNairy had a perfect game through 6.1 innings before giving up a single with one out in the seventh. The senior from Athens, AL threw a career high seven innings, striking out seven, walked none, allowed the one hit, and did not allow a run. Alabama improved to 6-4 with the win while Troy fell to 5-4.
The Tide scored early and often to take control of the game. Jim Jarvis tripled to lead off the bottom of the first and scored on a Drew Williamson one out single.
