We are pouring it on Troy.
Looks like we will finish our midweek games flawlessly.

My how times have changed. We used to average 7-8 losses a season in midweek games.

That dang loss to Presbyterian is the only out of conference blemish. That one is a real head scratcher.

From SI. Glad to hear it doesn’t seem to be serious for Lebron.
quote:
After Alabama baseball's victory at No. 19 Troy on Tuesday, head coach Rob Vaughn shared a status update concerning shortstop Justin Lebron's health; he left the game in the middle innings while his team led 7-0.
"It was more precautionary than anything," Vaughn said after the No. 23 Crimson Tide's 10-2 win. "When he came out, the game kinda got outta hand... He seems fine."
Lebron departed the contest with one out in the top of the fourth inning. He sent a base hit into left field and stretched it into a double but stayed down after an awkward slide into the bag. He was up quickly but was lifted after a few moments of assessment with Vaughn and the training staff.
He hit his 16th home run of the 2025 campaign in the top of the first inning off Troy starter Jacob Roettgen. That's an Alabama team high. He was hit by a pitch in his second at-bat of the game. His RBI total stands at 62.
"It kinda just snapped his neck back. It was more the helmet kinda hit the back of his neck. At first, he was a little sore. Once we kinda evaluated him, and he was cleared to kinda get back going, the game was out of hand."
Alabama (37-12) scored seven runs in the game's first two innings. Troy (34-15), meanwhile, did not score until the bottom of the sixth. Freshman Jon Young Jr. replaced him at shortstop. Vaughn was pleased to get the New Jersey native some reps.
"That's a good game for Jon to get out there and go, cause you never know what's gonna happen in the postseason," Vaughn said. "We might need Jon ready... Just decided to, out of an abuncance of precaution, keep Bron on the side and let Jon finish it."

This bodes well for post season when teams play the “scrappy” little mid-tier teams in the first round of a Regional. We routinely mash teams that aren’t filled with SEC talent.

It's so odd to me that Troy was ranked higher than us. Seems like a little bit of SEC disrespect going on there.

Mizzou really hurt our SOS. Pretty much no effect on any ranking for sweeping them. You almost get punished for playing them.
Example Auburn and Alabama have the same conference record.
Auburn was not gifted with three auto-wins.
Auburn is 5th Nationally in Baseball America where Alabama is 25th.

With Alabama’s convincing 10-2 win last night over 19th ranked Troy, the Tide finishes the 2025 midweek slate unblemished at 13-0. Included, are three victories over ranked opponents.
Alabama was the lone team in the SEC that did not suffer a single midweek defeat this season.
