Crimson Tide Momentum

Alabama enters this matchup with a perfect 3-0 record in the NCAA Tournament. The Tide are coming off a thrilling 9-7, 11-inning victory against Oklahoma State. The hero of that contest, Brady Neal, blasted a game-winning three-run homer in the 11th. Carrying a team-high .332 batting average, Neal is undoubtedly the player to keep your eyes on as the series begins.

Scouting the Red Storm

Don't overlook St. John’s. Like Alabama, they arrive in Tuscaloosa with a 3-0 mark in the tournament, highlighted by two hard-fought, one-run victories over No. 10 Florida State. Their ability to handle pressure in close contests makes them a formidable opponent.
