Alabama Defeats Samford 3-2

The Alabama Crimson Tide secured a 3-2 victory over the Samford Bulldogs in a tight pitching matchup on Tuesday night.

Alabama senior right-hander JT Blackwood delivered a stellar performance, tossing six innings of two-run ball to earn the win. Despite limited offense, the Tide capitalized on key moments, including a 105-mph single from Peyton Steele, to edge out the Bulldogs.

The game was a defensive battle with Justin LeBron making a key double-play assist. Blackwood finished with two hits allowed, two walks, and two strikeouts on just 64 pitches, improving Alabama's record to 3-1.
