Alabama Baseball Sweeps Xavier

Coach Brad Bohannon and his Crimson Tide baseball team started the season off on a positive note by sweeping Xavier this weekend. Bama won game one in walk off fashion by a score of 5-4, took the second game by an identical score and finished off the Musketeers by a score of 9-4 on Sunday.

Game One: won 5-4

Junior Garrett McMillian got the opening day start on the mound for the Tide. The Hillcrest and Shelton State alum said pitching for his hometown team was a dream come true. McMillian was greeted rudely when the first pitch he threw was driven out of the park by Xavier first baseman Luke Franzoni.
