BATON ROUGE, La. – Alabama softball saw its initial three-run lead erased following a rain delay in the fourth inning, but seven unanswered runs allowed the Crimson Tide to pull away for a deciding 10-3 victory over LSU.
The win is the first for Alabama (22-3) in Baton Rouge against LSU (22-3) since the 2008 SEC Tournament and it is the first regular season win on the road against the Tigers since March 24, 2007.
Alabama jumped on LSU early with a run in the first inning and two more in the second, holding the lead until a rain delay in the fourth inning and a game-tying three run homer following the delay.
