Bats Come Alive as Alabama Softball Sweeps Gamecocks

Alabama softball got a much-needed sweep of the South Carolina Gamecocks, thanks to an unexpected hero.

GAME 1: ALABAMA 7, SOUTH CAROLINA 5

This game did not exactly get started the way the Tide needed. Montana Fouts had yet another rocky start giving up two runs in the second inning and three in the third.

In the top of the sixth with the Gamecocks leading 5-2, the Tide loaded the bases with two outs. That is when reserve KJ Haney stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter and smashed the second pitch she saw over the left field wall.
