Alabama’s baseball squad stands just one victory away from delivering the program’s first College World Series berth in the 21st century, a feat that would cap a remarkable season for the Crimson Tide.
Super Regional Faces Weather Delays
The second game of the Tuscaloosa Super Regional has been pushed to a 3 p.m. Central Time start after thunderstorms forced a delay, and Alabama coach Rob Vaughn says the team is ready to take the mound at any hour.
Alabama will start left‑handed junior Zane Adams, while St. John's is expected to counter with former Alabama pitcher Evan Chaffee, who redshirted in 2023 before transferring to Queens and now hopes to exact revenge on his old team.
The forecast calls for storms to linger through the morning and afternoon, with rain likely to subside around 6 p.m. CT, a scenario the players have embraced as they prepare for the showdown.
A win would not only rewrite the program’s recent history but also underscore the resilience of a team that has turned weather challenges into a rallying point as the super regional unfolds.
