Alabama outfielder Casey Hughston was selected 96th overall by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the third round of the 2015 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft on Tuesday.

Alabama (30-26,12-18 SEC) had difficulty meeting its high expectations for the 2015 season. The team was projected to finish 2nd in the SEC West standings despite having to play their home games 50 miles away from Tuscaloosa. The Crimson Tide finished 6th in the SEC West standings, and, instead of coasting into the SEC tournament with ease, they had to rely on a Georgia loss to Arkansas just to gu

Alabama (29-24,11-16 SEC) entered the home half of the regular season in desperate need of wins, and head coach Mitch Gaspard responded accordingly.

Alabama (25-24, 8-16 SEC) regained some much needed momentum following a doubleheader sweep over Alabama A&M on Tuesday afternoon. The Crimson Tide will now hit the road to face a red hot Auburn team that recently moved into the top 25 rankings.

Alabama's (23-24, 8-16 SEC) postseason hopes took another serious hit over the weekend after being swept by Arkansas. The three losses knocked the Tide below .500, and they now need a solid finish just to secure a spot in the SEC tournament.

Wins are hard to come by this time of year as teams make last-minute efforts to get into the NCAA tournament. Alabama's case is no different and while they did lose their weekend series to Ole Miss, the Crimson Tide made a statement with a dominant 13-4 win over the Rebels on Sunday. Alabama (23-20, 8-13 SEC) now shifts its focus to an unusually difficult midweek opponent.

A doubleheader sweep over Mississippi Valley State on Tuesday afternoon may be the confidence boost Alabama needed as they head to Oxford for a three-game series against Ole Miss.

Alabama (20-18, 7-11 SEC) enter a midweek doubleheader after falling just short of getting a series win over 14th-ranked Missouri last weekend. The Tigers escaped with a 4-3 win on Friday, but the Tide quickly responded with a 6-0 win to start Saturday's doubleheader...

Alabama (19-16, 6-9 SEC) capped off its season sweep of UAB with a 5-1 win on Tuesday night. A three-run homer by Will Haynie in the 2nd inning gave them the early lead, and the Blazers were never able to catch up.

Alabama got a much needed series win against Georgia over the weekend but there is still a pretty large mountain to climb for Mitch Gaspard's team.
