Since you'll be heading into Coleman for the game, go by and get a baseball, hat, or whatever signed from the baseball squad after a victorious game against the Rebels Black Bears.

As always, we start the year undefeated and with hopes of heading to the CWS.

And we can hope those Nike POS bats have been discarded or tweaked so our power hitters have a better chance at swinging for the fences.

UA head coach Mitch Gaspard said, "We did a nice job defensively as well. Going into the weekend our biggest concern was probably how we were going to play defensively."

Do not laugh at this. This is not a funny incident.

That is all.

"I thought we were really good offensively."

If Gaspard feels this way the season could be a little more interesting than first expected.

A little regular season action for your enjoyment on the mother-ship. First a home game vs. those dirty snitches on April 14th, then a road game vs. Florida on April 23.

Lets also hope we enjoy a Championship Sunday for the SEC tourney for more TV exposure.

Roll 'Bama Roll NCAA Mandates New Standard For Composite Bats Starting In The 2011 Season

In September of 2008 a major change to College Baseball came with a simple two-page letter to all baseball bat manufacturers.  Those creating the bats would “…replace the Ball Exit Speed Ratio (BESR) with the Ball-Bat Coefficient of Restitution (BBCOR) as the means for measuring bat performance in testing.” [Letter to Bat Manufacturers; NCAA Clearinghouse; Sept 17, 2008]  While citing the increase of runs scored and home runs in games, the NCAA were interested increasing safety of those in the field from potentially damaging line drives which could seriously hurt infielders.

"The main reason why there has been a change of bats is because of safety. Balls were turning into bullets due to the contact of an aluminum bat."

A new era is beginning in College Baseball, all in the name of safety. While hitters may not care for the change, the effect should be pitching will finally catch up with the hitting in college baseball.

This may be a blessing in disguise for the Crimson Tide baseball team as many of their quality hitting lineup left/graduated last year. I fully expect a statistically better year for Kilcrease and the rest of the pitching staff.

p.s. forgive the bleacher report link, as it was the only real commentary out in the news world on this development.
