Alabama Drops Series Opener to Stetson
The Stetson Hatters, 11-4 on the season, defeated the Alabama Crimson Tide 12-2 (4-2) in the first of a three game series. Stetson's Nick Durgin put on a pitching clinic, holding the Tide without a hit until the bottom of the ninth and adding 9 strikeouts
Stetson jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the second inning following a moon shot home run from Jackson Olson that found its way right into the heart of the Alabama right field pavilion. From there, Alabama kept Stetson in check, allowing just two more runs, but could not wake the bats up until the end.
