After winning two out of three games at the Cox Diamond Invitational in Pensacola, Florida last weekend, the Southern Miss baseball team traveled to Tuscaloosa, Alabama to face the Alabama Crimson Tide in a midweek contest, losing by a score of 3-0.
The game started off as a defensive and pitching battle, with both teams going through three scoreless innings of play. Things started to unravel for the Golden Eagles in the bottom of the fourth inning, when Alabama’s Chandler Avant hit an RBI double to left center field, allowing his teammate Hunter Alexander to score and give the Crimson Tide the lead.
