Alabama Baseball: 3 Things Needed To Win Houston Series

ICYMI: Alabama Basketball: Tide’s Week In Nashville Over With Loss To Kentucky

It certainly wasn’t the outcome that Alabama baseball fans wanted on the Friday to open the series at Sewell-Thomas Stadium, but it isn’t the end of the world.

The Tide did hold the Cougars scoreless through four innings until Geoffrey Bramblett gave Houston the 1-0 lead. Alabama tied things back up in the seventh until the Cougars scored two more runs in the eighth which proved to be the difference in the game.

Houston is a tough team and with the Tide seeing the Cougars’ ace Andrew Lantrip , runs as well as hits came at a premium.
