The suddenly hot Alabama Crimson Tide defeated Georgia by a score of 5-3 on Tuesday in the opening game of the SEC Tournament. The game was delayed for about an hour due to weather, played two innings, and then faced a two hour break before resuming. Garrett McMillian started on the mound for the Tide on only four days rest but was burned after just two innings this morning. Bama held a 5-1 lead when the skies opened up.
The Tide jumped out early, scoring three times in the first and twice in the second. Caden Rose led off the game with a line shot double to left field and scored on a screaming single by Andrew Pinckney.
