Life is a waiting game, so what was a three-hour rain delay compared to waiting 17 years between hosting a Regional? And at least it was worth both waits
Alabama Crimson Tide baseball defeated Nicholls 4-3 on Friday night, on a walk-off single by Jim Jarvis in the bottom of the 9th inning.
The thrilling victory came in front of a sellout crowd that was worked into a frenzy. Troy defeated Boston College in the first game of the day, 11-10 in a slugfest. The Troy-BC game began at 2 p.m. and only made it until the bottom of the 2nd before rain blew in and put the game on hold for nearly three hours.
