Crimson Clinches Fall World Series with Thrilling 8-6 Victory
The Crimson squad turned a 4-6-3 double play to get out of a bases-loaded jam in the final half inning for the series-clinching win
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The finale of Alabama baseball's Fall World Series came down to the wire on Wednesday with the Crimson team claiming an 8-6 win at Sewell-Thomas Stadium.
Crimson jumped out front to an early 6-0 lead after the first, highlighted by a three-run homer from Camden Hayslip, and added one more in the third for a 7-0 advantage after three innings of play. Gray got on the board in the top of the fourth with a three-spot before Crimson answered with one in the fifth to make it an 8-3 ballgame after five full.
Gray continued to chip away, plating three in the top of the sixth to make it an 8-6 affair headed to the seventh. In the top of that final frame, Gray was able to load the bases with one down, but a 4-6-3 double play ended things and helped Crimson clinch the Fall World Series title.
Sam Mitchell got the start for Crimson, tossing 3.2 scoreless innings with one punchout for the win. Coulson Buchanan then entered on the back end to record the final three outs for the save. Pierce George was solid for Gray, working 2.2 relief frames with one run allowed and a game-high four strikeouts.
The Crimson offense was powered by Hayslip's three-run homer. Joey Rubin was next in line with two RBI while Hayslip and Justin Lebron tied for the team lead in runs with two apiece.
Wednesday's action was the final workout of the fall schedule for Alabama. The Crimson Tide will now break until January when full-team practice resumes.
