Sorry if this has already been disscussed, I searched and didn't find anything. Looks as if Sewell Thomas Stadium (Bama's baseball facility) will finally be getting a major upgrade with a 30 million dollar price tag. This is long overdue considering all the improvements to other facilities in the recent years. Just glad to see it is finally coming.

Good news, but I was hoping to see a brand new stadium in a location over-looking the river.

Seems like you could build a brand new stadium for 30 million bucks.

Bill Battle has won a lot of Bama people over by his first two actions in firing Wendell Hudson and building, essentially, a new baseball stadium.

Both should have happened years ago.

Reason for not building a new stadium is because you wouldn't be able to build a new stadium and an indoor practice facility for 30 million.

Why? According to Bama fans y'all only care about football, softball and gymnastics. For some reason, you guys have neglected to update us on Bama softball this year.

One of the assistant AD's was in Oxford for the series scouting the stadium. It sounded like they were finally going to give baseball a real effort financially.

Whoever got ranked below us must play in a gravel lot
