On Tuesday morning Kemp Alderman was still redshirting his freshman season with the Ole Miss baseball team, but on Saturday he very well may swung the Rebels’ season back on track.
Aldermen took the first pitch in the bottom of the ninth inning 421 feet the other way over the right center field wall, giving the No. 12 Rebels the comeback 10-9 win over LSU at Oxford-University Stadium on Saturday. The win avoiding a sweep by LSU, who had already claimed the series in their 7-2 win on Friday.
The true freshman made his third appearance of the season on Saturday after getting his first start earlier in the week against Little Rock.
