The University of Alabama’s weekend sweep at Arkansas held significance for several members of the program. Head coach Mitch Gaspard got his first series win at Baum Stadium, the only road venue in the SEC West where he hadn’t previously won a series.
Center fielder Georgie Salem went 5-for-11 on the weekend, but broke one of his own records in the field. He hasn’t registered an error in his last 88 games, dating back to March 21, 2015. Before that, he’d gone 86 straight games without an error. He’s only made one error since the start of the 2014 season.
