Season-Opening Series for No. 20 Crimson Tide Brings Richmond to Tuscaloosa

The Crimson Tide and Spiders will meet for the fifth time in series history on Friday

Alabama baseball will begin its 2023 season when the 20th-ranked Crimson Tide hosts Richmond this Friday through Sunday at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. The season opener is scheduled for a 3 p.m. CT start followed by a 1 p.m. first pitch on Saturday and a 12 p.m. open on Sunday. All three games of Opening Weekend will air live on SEC Network+.

Opening Weekend at Sewell-Thomas Stadium will be packed with promotions. Friday's season-opener will feature a T-shirt giveaway for the first 500 fans through the gates. The home opener will also start the Crimson Tide's 'Food Truck Friday' promotion at The Joe. Food trucks will be on-site each home Friday during the 2023 campaign, offering fans more dining options during their time at the ballpark.

Saturday will have family-friendly options available on the main concourse. An airbrush station along with inflatables will be located throughout the ballpark. The series finale on Sunday will be the first 'Kids' Day at The Joe'. All kids 18-and-under can purchase a $5 general admission ticket. Children will also have the chance to run the bases postgame.
