Alabama's Rob Vaughn on the Crimson Tide's Sunday victory
Alabama managed to avoid complete shame in its series against the Mississippi State Bulldogs, by managing a solid 10-5 victory on Sunday to close the series 1-2. The Crimson Tide's head coach Rob Vaughn opened up about the result, and spoke about the danger his team will face during the SEC tournament later this month:
"State's playing some of the best baseball in the country right now, there's no secret we were pretty banged up this weekend. I got a text from [Alabama softball] coach [Patrick] Murphy a little bit ago saying, 'Your group's gonna be battle tested come tournament time.'"
He also spoke about the work ethic of starting pitcher, Ben Hess:
"I thought that was some of the best he competed all year for us, very unselfish."
Hess threw four innings, allowing just one run although the victory was credited to relief pitcher Braylon Myers. Hess stroked out four hitters but gave up a bag and was credited with an error.
