The Alabama Crimson Tide took a must win series from rival Auburn this weekend. After losing 8-4 on Friday the Tide bounced back with a 4-2 win on Saturday and a series clinching 6-1 victory on Sunday. Bama improved to 26-11 overall and 6-9 in the SEC while Auburn fell to 20-15-1 overall and 5-10 in league play. Sewell-Thomas Stadium, The Joe, was fully sold out for the series, the first such occurrence since April of 2016 in a series with Ole Miss. The Tide, with injuries to weekend starting pitchers Ben Hess and Grayson Hitt, had to piece together a rotation and did a good job of doing so in allowing only 11 total runs in the three games.
