On Sunday, the Alabama Crimson Tide baseball team improved to 12-0 after sweeping Harvard. This is the second-best start to a season in program history.

On Friday, Alabama won 15-3, followed by a 10-5 win on Saturday. With Sunday’s 6-3 win, Alabama has once again completed a sweep. Last week Alabama swept UNLV in Las Vegas.

On Sunday, Alabama was led by TJ Reeves. Reeves finished with two as part of his 1-for-4 afternoon that included the home run, a walk and one run scored.

Head Coach Brad Bohannon had this to say after the game:

“This was just another really good win for us today. When the wind’s blowing in, you’re going to be in tight games and that was a good experience for us to be in, a tight game like that. Antoine (Jean) pitched well today, worked around some bad luck, some soft contact, and, obviously, I feel like I keep saying this but the bullpen was just awesome. (Jacob) McNairy and (Brock) Guffey were outstanding. We had a couple of games the last week and a half where we have gotten behind, and one of the big keys to winning those games is the bullpen coming in, giving our offense time to work and multiple guys have just been really, really good in that role. I’m glad to get the win, glad to get the sweep, and I’m excited to continue to move forward with league play around the corner.”

Alabama will host South Alabama on Wednesday in Tuscaloosa on March 3rd. On Thursday, Alabama will also host North Alabama, Both games are scheduled for 3 PM CT and will be on SEC Network+.
