Tennessee’s 17-game winning streak in baseball is no longer, as the fifth-ranked Volunteers were their own worst enemy Saturday night during a 6-3 loss to No. 14 Alabama in Tuscaloosa.

The Vols committed two errors and a wild pitch through the first two innings to help the Crimson Tide build a 3-0 lead, and Alabama doubled its advantage to 6-0 in the third on Mac Guscette’s RBI single down the right-field line and Justin Lebron’s two-run single to left.

Tennessee starting pitcher Drew Beam would bounce back and worked eight innings, retiring the final 13 batters he faced, but the early damage could not be overcome as the junior suffered his first setback of the season.

Tennessee dropped to 18-2 overall, while Alabama improved to 16-3 entering the rubber match of the first Southeastern Conference series of the season for both teams.

Alabama hires former college offensive lineman as assistant tight ends coach

Alabama football is hiring Noah Fisher to be its assistant tight ends coach, according to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.

Fisher spent two seasons as a graduate assistant working with the offensive line and tight ends at Louisville before joining the Tide’s staff. He played three years on the offensive line at South Alabama and spent one season with Tulane. The Jaguars started Fisher along its offensive line when he was a player for multiple games.

The Crimson Tide appear to want to use their tight ends in multiple ways in the future including as extra blockers along the line of scrimmage. Fisher looks as if he can assist the Tide with this mission.

Petition calls on State of Alabama to fund fix for Prichard sewer system after spills

PRICHARD, Ala. (NBC 15) — Sewage overflows during storms in Prichard are sending wastewater into local waterways that feed Mobile Bay, prompting an environmental group to push for state funding to upgrade aging infrastructure.

Mobile Baykeeper says sewage overflows during storms flow into Three Mile Creek, then into the Mobile River, and ultimately end up in Mobile Bay. The group said that last week, during heavy rain, more than 256,000 gallons of sewage spilled into Gum Tree Branch and Three Mile Creek.

Mobile Baykeeper has launched a petition seeking funding from the state of Alabama to fix Prichard’s old water infrastructure.
