The Alabama Crimson Tide baseball team is ranked No. 22 in the nation, according to Baseball America, and won their first contest of a three-game series against Wright State at home.
Alabama will finish the series by playing the two remaining games in a doubleheader.
The first game was a back and forth that led to extra innings with the game tied at seven.
In the eleventh inning, sophomore William Hamiter drove in the game-winning run with a deep drive to left field that nearly went over the wall for a grand slam. Instead, the runner from third ran home and got the job done.
