The ballpark was named for former Tide football coach Frank Thomas. It became Sewell-Thomas Field in 1978, taking on the name of former UA baseball coach and 1977 Hall of Fame inductee, Joe Sewell. The ballpark has undergone three renovations in the last 20 years. The stadium was constructed in 1991 and then two upgrades were added in 1996 and 2001. 2010 A L A B A M A M E D I A R E L A T I O N S S T A F F Media Relations Phone: Media Relations Fax: Website:

The University of Alabama’s Director of Athletics since 1999, Mal Moore has made an indelible mark on one of the nation’s most storied athletic programs, leading a department that has enjoyed tremendous success athletically and academically and has undergone an unprecedented period of growth during his tenure. Through his guidance, Alabama’s athletic department remains focused on his vision of having all Crimson Tide athletic teams and student-athletes competitive at the highest level nationally while continuing to elevate athletic facilities at the Capstone to premier status nationally for all sports. During his tenure as Director of Athletics, Moore has overseen more than $200 million of capital improvements to University of Alabama athletic facilities. Those projects have encompassed the entire scope of all Crimson Tide athletic programs and have benefitted every Alabama studentathlete, coach, and administrator. Throughout his multi-faceted career, Moore has worked with a diversified field of constituents, from fellow coaches and former players, to fans and the business community. All of those experiences and relationships - in addition to his ability to unify those many constituents - have made him the ideal person to lead Alabama athletics in the 21st century. His leadership has been crucial in helping guide Alabama through a period that has been, at times, extremely challenging. His guidance and effort helped Alabama athletics weather the storm, while continuing to move in a positive direction toward a future that holds great promise. Moore’s dedication to and love of the University of Alabama was recognized on March 28, 2007, when as a permanent tribute to his life-long contribution to The University of Alabama, the Board of Trustees of The University of Alabama officially dedicated the facility formerly known as The Football Building as the Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility.

Under Moore’s direction, Alabama’s athletic teams have produced two national championships, the 2009 football title and the 2002 NCAA gymnastics championship, as well as several Southeastern Conference championships, winning titles in football, gymnastics, men’s basketball, men’s golf, men’s cross country, baseball and softball; taking SEC tournament titles in both baseball and softball. Alabama athletes have earned some of the highest honors the SEC and NCAA have to offer, including SEC Athlete of the Year, SEC ScholarAthlete of the Year, NCAA Top VIII, NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships and NCAA Sportsperson of the Year. These honors are over and above the individual conference and national titles that Alabama athletes continue to bring home to the Capstone on a regular basis. In addition to making his mark on Alabama, Moore has also had a national impact as a key member of several prestigious NCAA and college football committees. Moore has served on the NCAA Division I Football Issues Committee, the SEC Athletic Directors Bowl Advisory Committee and the Big Six Conferences Minority Coaches Forum.

During a coaching career that spanned 31 years, Moore spent 22 of those at Alabama with stops at Montana State, Notre Dame and the NFL’s St. Louis and Phoenix Cardinals. At Alabama, Moore started as Coach Bryant’s graduate assistant in 1964, then as defensive backfield coach for five years beginning in 1965 before becoming quarterbacks coach from 1971-82 and serving as the Tide’s first offensive coordinator starting in 1975. He would go on to coordinate all of the offensive plays for Alabama’s last four national championship teams. A 1963 graduate of The University of Alabama, Moore holds both an undergraduate degree in Sociology and a 1964 Master’s Degree in Secondary Education from the Capstone. Moore was born December 19, 1939, in Dozier, Ala. He and the late Mrs. Charlotte Moore have one daughter, Mrs. Steve (Heather) Cook of Scottsdale, Ariz., a granddaughter, Anna Lee, and a grandson, Charles Cannon.

Moore’s distinguished record of service to UA began more than 50 years ago when he joined the Crimson Tide football squad as a scholarship player for Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant from 1958-62. Moore has the distinction of being a part of eight national championship teams (1961, 1964, 1965, 1973, 1978, 1979, 1992 and 2009) with the first coming as a player, the next six during his coaching career and the last during his tenure as director of athletics. As a player and coach, he was also part of 14 SEC championships, and 27 bowl trips. He is the only individual connected with the Tide program to be a part of eight national championships.

Sprayberry Christmas Party (December 8, 2009) The baseball Team concluded the season with a Christmas Party at Sprayberry Education Center. The team brought gifts, signed baseballs and served the children treats during this event. The team led the group in Christmas carols and even had a surprise visit from Santa Claus.

The Alabama baseball team spent much of the fall working out and preparing for the upcoming season, but in their spare time the team was very active in the Tuscaloosa area with numerous community service projects. The team visited many schools and nursing homes and hosted a Halloween and Christmas party for a number of school-aged children, all a part of head coach Mitch Gaspard’s plan of being visible and giving back to a community that has supported the Crimson Tide for many years. “We want to be the most visible team on the Alabama campus,” Gaspard said. “We put in a lot of hours this fall, supporting the community and local schools. When fans come to watch us play, we want them to see our guys as more than just baseball players. I think our support in the community is important. We have a lot of loyal baseball fans in Tuscaloosa and this is our way to give back and thank them for all of their support. We had a busy fall and we will continue to support the community this spring as well.” One of those projects will include the 2010 United Cerebral Palsy Telethon in April, where Coach Gaspard will serve as the honorary chairman for this year’s event. The baseball team spent numerous hours with students and the elderly this fall, but the highlight of the semester took place at the Sprayberry Education Center, where the team hosted a Christmas party for the students and faculty. Sprayberry is the special education facility for the Tuscaloosa County School System and serves the needs of children in five different programs, including preschool, multiple disabilities, autism, alternative and TARGET, for gifted education. More than 100 students, faculty and staff participated in the event, according to Sprayberry principal John Barnacastle.

“This was fantastic to have the whole baseball team here,” Barnacastle said. “Our kids loved it. It was a really, really good experience. I hope the team got as much out of it as our kids did and we look forward to doing this again in the future. I really appreciate Coach Gaspard and the team for coming here today and having such a great event.”

“We were truly honored to be a part of the Sprayberry Christmas party today,” Gaspard said. “Our guys did a great job with all the kids and we all had a great time. The students had a great time, too. I am glad we could do this today for a great school and group of children.”

Gaspard and the Crimson Tide team hosted the event at the Sprayberry Center and provided the children with gifts and snacks for the event. The team also participated in the singing of Christmas carols and decorating the school’s tree. There was also a visit from Santa Claus.

Crossing Points Golf Tourney (Oct. 1, 2009) UA players assisted with the golf tournament to benefit persons with Down’s syndrome. Beat Auburn, Beat Hunger Canned Food Drive The team collected canned goods at an Alabama volleyball game and soccer game to support the West Alabama Food Bank. The team also spent two hours at the Publix on campus on Sept. 22 for the same cause. UA collected over 175,000 pounds of canned goods to beat Auburn for the third straight year.

Project Angel Tree (December 1, 2009) As part of a long-standing Athletic Department Tradition, the baseball team raised money for gifts for children whose parents are incarcerated and hosted a party at Coleman Coliseum. Former Alabama All-American and current New York Yankees relief pitcher David Robertson also attended the event and gave the Angel Tree a $1,500 gift card to Toys r us to assist in this year’s project.

Halloween Extravaganza (Oct. 28, 2009) The baseball team participated in the Athletic Department’s annual Halloween Extravaganza in the Hank Crisp Indoor Facility. This provides children with a safe place to go and trick-or-treat in Tuscaloosa. The baseball team spent time working a booth that allowed children to see just how fast they could actually throw a baseball with a speed gun.

Turkey Bowl (Nov. 23, 2009) The team spent a Monday night in Northport serving as coaches, officials and administrators for the annual Turkey Bowl, sponsored by Davis-Faucett Elementary School.

Capstone Village Retirement Community Active Aging Week (Sept. 21-25, 2009) Players visited the retirement center and spent 30 minutes each walking with the retirees.

Brookwood Middle School (September 25, 2009) Jonathan Smart, Danny Collins, Cody Trotter and Taylor Dugas spent two hours at Brookwood Middle School to talk about the importance of education and the dangers of drugs and alcohol.

Sewell-Thomas Stadium

Media Information

Sewell-Thomas Stadium has served as home for the Crimson Tide baseball team for more than six decades. The ballpark has seen many changes over the last half-century and hosted many great events. “The Joe” which is located just off Paul W. Bryant drive in the UA Athletics Complex, had played host to six NCAA Regionals, six SEC Playoff series and a pair of exhibition games with the New York Yankees in 1978 and 1984. The Crimson Tide used it home-field advantage to secure a berth in the College World Series in 1996, 1997 and 1999, winning 13 straight postseason home games in one of the most dominant runs in Crimson Tide baseball history. Alabama has compiled a 1,086-461-2 (.701) alltime record at Sewell-Thomas Stadium since its move to the current site in 1948. The Crimson Tide posted a 26-6 (.813) record at home last season and won four of its five Southeastern Conference series, with wins over No. 1 Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky and No. 11 Arkansas. Over the last 15 years, Alabama has been almost unbeatable at home, winning 57 of its 73 SEC series. Since 1995, Alabama had won 32 of 41 home series against SEC Eastern Division teams. The Crimson Tide posted three series wins last against No. 1 Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky and enters the 2010 season having won its last 13 home series against an SEC Eastern Division team. The last home series loss to an Eastern Division school was in 1995 against South Carolina. Alabama also won 13 straight home series against eastern division teams from 1995-2000. During that same 15-year span, Alabama has won 24 of 35 home series against SEC Western Division teams, including seven of its last nine. The Crimson Tide split two home series with SEC Western Division foes (LSU and Arkansas) in 2009 and the series loss to LSU snapped a streak of 10 consecutive home series wins against teams from the SEC West. From 19962000, Alabama won 11 straight home series against SEC Western Division teams. Alabama will enter the 2010 season having won 21 of its last 25 SEC home series. Alabama earned a home series win over topranked Georgia last season, adding to the Tide’s suc-

cess at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. The Crimson Tide has won seven of its eight series against the No. 1 team in the land since 1985, with four of those series wins coming in Tuscaloosa. Alabama owns series wins over Miami, Fla. (1985), LSU (2007), Mississippi State (2006) and Georgia (2008). The Crimson Tide baseball team has been a success at the gate as well, drawing more than 2,000,000 fans since the first stadium expansion in 1991. Over the last 19 years, Alabama has attracted 2,245,942 fans in 604 all-time openings. The Crimson Tide ranked second nationally in attendance from 1999-2002 and set a school record with 211,331 fans during the 2000, when every home game was sold out. Frank Thomas Field opened on March 26, 1948, as a 2,000-seat facility, which attracted many overflow crowds in the 1950s and 1960s under Coach Tilden “Happy” Campbell and Coach Joe Sewell. The inaugural game was played on March 26, 1948 with the Crimson Tide beating the Bradley Braves 5-2 in the first game of a doubleheader. Pitcher Clarence Flack delivered the first pitch at 2:02 p.m. (CT) on that afternoon in the Tide’s new baseball home. Dick Dill recorded the first hit at Thomas Field and Jack Rutledge swatted the first home run. Flack was the winning pitcher that afternoon for the Tide. Marvin Blemker also pitched and earned what is known today as a save. Since the inaugural game in 1947, Sewell-Thomas Stadium has seen plenty of changes, both on and off the field. The stadium was renamed Sewell-Thomas Field in 1978, honoring former Alabama football and baseball standout and Major League Hall of Famer Joe Sewell. Alabama played the first night game in school history on March 14, 1981 with a 13-8 victory over Western Kentucky. The ballpark has undergone two major renovations since it was erected in 1947, with the last coming in

1999. In addition, there are additional plans for future renovations on the both the inside and outside of the stadium. The original grandstand was completed in time for the 1991 season and the Tide’s new ball park held 2,700 fans. Wesley Construction of Talladega, Ala., built the new facility for $2.1 million and the completion of the permanent grandstand changed the name of the facility to Sewell-Thomas Stadium. In 1996, bleachers were added down the right field line to raise the stadium’s capacity to more than 4,000 as the Crimson Tide hosted its first NCAA Regional that same year. N.C. Morgan Construction of Tuscaloosa, Ala., is responsible for the most recent additions at SewellThomas Stadium. The $4 million expansion project gives the Tide one of the finest home facilities in all of college baseball. The project, which was completed prior to the 2001 season, involved extending the grandstand down the right-field line. The addition of 2,000 seats raised the stadium capacity to 6,571 seats. The bench seats that filled the upper level of the grandstand were moved to the new addition. Chairback seats, similar to those in the lower level, were installed in the upper level. The stadium also received three new ticket booths, five new concession stands and five new restrooms for men and women. Two “hawker” stands were added to allow for concession sales in the grandstand. The players and coaches benefited from the 2001 renovations, too. The Crimson Tide moved into its spacious clubhouse in 2001. The expansion also included three indoor batting cages and pitching machines, a meeting room, training room, equipment room and coaches offices. A new stadium entrance was created in the fall of 2005 and a new sound system from All Pro Sound was installed prior to the start of the season. The ball park also got a general facelift with new paint, signs and handrails as part of this $175,000 project.

The Alabama pitching staff’s conditioning program under pitching coach Kyle Bunn and strength and conditioning coach Rocky Colburn is appropriately named the “The Ninth Inning Program.” This program was modeled after Coach Saban’s Fourth Quarter Program in order to take Alabama’s pitching to a new level of mental toughness. The Ninth Inning Program is one of the most important aspects of the Crimson Tide baseball program. It teaches the players how to prepare. It teaches the players about mental toughness. More importantly, it teaches the players how to win. Alabama holds a winning record over every other SEC opponent and the establishment of the new Ninth Inning Program will help keep this winning tradition alive. “It prepares our pitchers to mentally embrace nine innings of baseball and more if needed. Maximizing mental toughness is the goal of the program. We train their minds to not only win, but to surpass their highest expectations.” – Kyle Bunn, UA Pitching Coach. “It all comes down to nine innings. After that there is a winner and a loser. The University of Alabama Crimson Tide’s Ninth Inning Program is designed so that regardless of what is set before us, regardless of what the circumstances are, regardless of what the odds may be, we will get the job done and be the winner!” – Rocky Colburn, UA Baseball Strength and Conditioning Coach Over the last 15 years, Alabama has had 31 pitchers selected in the Major League Baseball Draft. The Tide has had 15 pitchers taken in the first 10 rounds of the MLB Draft since 1995, including first-round picks Taylor Tankersley (2004) and Tommy Hunter (2006).

ALABAMA

First-year pitching coach Kyle Bunn coach must find a way to replace two-thirds of the Crimson Tide’s starting rotation from last year’s team. Fifth-year senior Austin Hyatt (8-3, 3.76 ERA) logged more than 100 innings last season en route to All-American and All-SEC honors, while two-way standout Del Howell (5-3, 6.33 ERA) opted for the MLB draft after his junior season. Bunn, who has built solid reputation at Mississippi and Clemson for developing arms into solid weekend warriors, will now try his hand with an Alabama staff that has a nice blend of veterans and newcomers. Sophomore left-hander Adam Morgan (13 G, 9 GS, 4-2, 4.17 ERA) is the lone returning weekend starter for the Tide. He posted some key wins last season for the Crimson Tide, including his SEC debut against No. 1 ranked Georgia. Juniors Jason Townsend, Jonathan Smart and Jimmy Nelson will also contend for starting jobs on the mound. Townsend spent the last two seasons at Chipola Junior College and has a solid fall for the Crimson Tide. Smart, who missed the 2009 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, was a pleasant surprise this fall on the mound and emerged as one of the Tide’s top arms. Nelson is in his third season with the Tide and has pitched as both a starter and reliever in his career. The bullpen should be anchored by senior David Head, junior Nathan Kilcrease, senior Adam Scott and sophomore Tyler White. The Crimson Tide will also have the services of six freshmen, including Tucker Hawley, Trey Pilkington, Matt Taylor, Adam Windsor and Taylor Wolfe, all of whom showed great promise this fall on the mound. Taylor is also a two-way player and could see time in the outfield because of his speed and arm strength. Junior college transfer Brett Whitaker is another two-way player that will likely see action on the mound. He is also an excellent hitter and suited for the role of DH or pinch-hitter.

ALABAMA

What the Crimson Tide lacks in experience, it makes up for it with talent and depth behind the plate this season. Alabama enters the 2010 season with five catchers on its active roster, but only two of those five catchers have seen game action for the Crimson Tide. Senior Cody Trotter (.342, 3 HR, 11 RBI) has the most experience with 12 games under his belt before an elbow injury ended his season in early April last season. Trotter underwent extensive rehab this summer and fall and was able to return to the lineup by the middle of fall camp. Junior Brock Bennett is the only other catcher with any game experience and is one of the Tide’s top defensive backstops. He has played in five games during his two-year career. Junior Chris Smelley and freshman Brett Booth are both talented players and offensive and defensive depth to the Tide’s lineup this season. Smelley and Booth both bring a quarterbacks mentality to the Tide’s catching lineup, as both were successful high school signal callers. Smelley, who also played quarterback at South Carolina before transferring to Alabama for the 2009 season, was an all-state performer at American Christian Academy in Tuscaloosa in both football and baseball. Booth led the Tuscaloosa County High School Wildcats to back-to-back perfect regualr seasons in 2007 and 2008. That experience should help both players and the catching position. Smelley could also play first base and DH for the Tide this season. Booth worked a third base and saw action on the mound for the Tide this fall. Freshman walk-on Charley Waldrep missed most fo the fall with a back injury and could redshirt this year.

Ross Wilson is a two-time All-SEC selection for the Alabama Crimson Tide.

ALABAMA

The strength of the 2010 Alabama baseball team has to start in the infield, where the Crimson Tide returns all four starters from last year’s squad. The Tide welcomes back senior first baseman Clay Jones (.331, 7 HR, 39 RBI), junior second baseman Ross Wilson (.353, 9 HR, 47 RBI), junior shortstop Josh Rutledge (.305, 5 HR, 44 RBI) and senior third baseman Jake Smith (.359, 18 HR, 54 RBI). Smith and Wilson are 2010 preseason All-Americans, while Rutledge, Smith and Wilson were first-team All-SEC selections in 2009. Smith and Wilson were also named to the 2009 SEC All-Defensive Team. Smith, a two-time SEC All-Defensive Team selection, made only five errors at third base last season. That quartet combined to hit .336 (264-for-785) with 39 home runs and 184 RBI last season. With the abundance of talent and experience, Alabama coach Mitch Gaspard thinks the Crimson Tide will field one of the finest infields in the nation this season. “I feel like we have a chance to have one of the best infields in the country,” Gaspard said. “We have a lot of talent and experience in the infield and they are all leaders on this team. Smith and Jones are solid corner-infielders, who will hit for average and power. Wilson and Rutledge will be together for the third straight year and have formed one of the best middle infields in the country.” The Crimson Tide will also have the services of senior Cal Tinsley, juniors John David Smelser and Josh Sanders and freshmen Danny Collins and Allen Dye this season.

Taylor Dugas earned Freshman All-American honors after leading Alabama with 83 hits and 20 doubles in 2009.

ALABAMA

Sophomore Taylor Dugas, who earned All-SEC and All-American honors as a freshman last season, anchors the Cirmson Tide outfield this season. Dugas will move from leftfield to centerfield this season, after a steallar rookie season in which he hit .352 (83-for-236) with two home runs and 27 RBI in 56 games. He led the team in hits (83) and doubles (20) and ranked third in runs scored (61) and fourth in hitting. Alabama will be looking to replace Kent Matthes, the 2009 NCAA home run leader, and Alex Kubal in the outfield this season. Matthes hit .358 with 28 home runs and 81 RBI last season en route to being named a consensus All-American in 2009. Kubal hit .313 with four home runs nad 16 RBI and turned in a number of highlight-reel catches in centerfield the last two seasons. A trio of freshmen are among the candidates to replace Matthes and Kubal this season. The Tide will look to redshirt freshman Brandt Hendricks, true freshman Andrew Miller and redshirt freshman Kent Myer to fill those shoes in 2010. All three are talented players, but all three missed some or all of the fall with significant injuries. Miller missed the first two weeks while recovering from a broken ankle sustained during the summer. He returned to the lineup in the middle of the fall and showed why he was one of the top high school players in the state of Alabama. Hendricks suffered a broken ankle the first week of fall and did not return, while Myer suffered a broken leg during the second week and missed the remaining practice time. Both should be back in the fold this spring and competing for the two outfield slots or DH. Sophomore Jon Kelton and junior David Kindred will also compete for playing time in the outfield this season. Kelton can also play in the infield and is a provides a capable left-hand bat, while Kindred has expereince with stints at Mississippi and Shelton State CC.

ALABAMA

Mitch Gaspard is his own man. He has his own philosophies on hitting, pitching, defense and ways to build a championship program and you cannot argue with his success. That success has come from hard work and high energy, both on and off the field. “We want to be known as a blue-collar-type team,” Gaspard said. “I believe in hard work. We want to work hard in the classroom, during practice and at the games. We want to out-work the teams we play. Our strength and conditioning program is built around mental toughness. When the game is on the line in the ninth inning, we want to be mentally stronger than our opponent. We want the toughness to show in all areas of our team.” Gaspard spent the fall instilling that toughness in his first Alabama squad. He has a high-energy coaching staff with a deep passion for the game and deep passion for the Crimson Tide program. Assistant coach Dax Norris, who serves as the team’s hitting coach and recruiting coordinator, played two years at Alabama in 1995-96 and brings that mental toughness to the hitters every day. Assistant coach Kyle Bunn, who played at The Citadel, brings a hard-nose, military background to the pitching staff. The energy level of the coaching staff brought about some intense practices and tension-filled scrimmages this fall, putting the players in gamelike situations to see how they would respond. On offense, things will be different from years past. “Our offensive philosophy is going to be different,” Gaspard said. “You can look at my teams at Northwestern State; we were third in the nation in two of the six years in stolen bases. The one unique quality we have here is we have power but we also have athletes with speed. “We’ve got to use that and really have the aggressive style that’s going to put pressure on the defense and I think we can do that with our offense with a little bit of a running game, hit-andrun, playing the short game some and also being able to hit the three-run homer. We can use all three packages on that.” Gaspard also wants to translate that mental toughness to the mound, where Bunn has played a key role this fall. “I think the number one goal for us pitchingwise, is we’ve got to command the strike zone. We’ve got to have that same aggressive style on the mound and throw the fastball and put it where we need it and get tough mentality on the mound, the same as many of our position players.” Gaspard brings confidence to the Tide baseball program as well. His personality and attitude has been the difference this fall. “His personality is much different and he is so

confident in what we are doing,” Alabama senior third baseman Jake Smith said. “The energy level is there every day. We worked hard this fall and I think that it is going to pay off this spring. I am expecting a really good season.” Gaspard has learned from some of the best in the business. He comes from a coaching tree that is a virtual Hall of Fame. His 21-year coaching career has included playing and working for some of the best in the game, like former LSU coach Skip Bertman, former Houston coach Bragg Stockton and former Northwestern State and Alabama skipper Jim Wells. After graduating from Port Arthur-Jefferson High School, where he led the team to a state title and earned all-state honors at shortstop, Gaspard played one season for Bertman at LSU. He transferred to Houston in 1986 and finished his career with the Cougars, earning his degree in 1988. Stockton offered him his first coaching job and he spent one year at his alma mater before moving on to UL Lafayette for the next three seasons. From 1989-92, the Ragin Cajuns won three straight conference titles and played in three NCAA Regionals. During his days as Wells’ assistant at NSU, the Demons won SLC titles in 1993 and 1994, winning in NCAA regional play in 1994.

Gaspard was a pivotal figure as an ace recruiter and shrewd tactician in the remarkable revival of the Crimson Tide. Alabama had four SEC wins in 1994, but after Gaspard arrived, the Tide won the SEC Tournament in 1995 and was one win away from the College World Series. By the time Gaspard returned to NSU, Alabama had earned six NCAA Regional appearances and three College World Series berths, including a national championship game loss to LSU in 1997. In each of his seven seasons at Alabama, Gaspard molded the Tide into one of nation’s finest defensive units. Alabama set numerous school records and ranked among the nation’s Top 10 fielding teams twice in his tenure. Gaspard was the chief recruiter for Alabama. In each of his first five seasons, Alabama ranked among the nation’s top 20 recruiting classes, including three straight Top 10 recruiting classes, according to Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. “Mitch is a bright, young, energetic coach with a great passion for the game of baseball,” former Tide coach Jim Wells said. “He is an outstanding recruiter and teacher. He is a tireless worker and is one of the main reasons that we were so successful in the early stages of building our program at Northwestern State and Alabama.”

mark. In his final season as a UH player, Gaspard helped the Cougars to a 40-27 overall record and a berth in the NCAA Central Regional in Austin, Texas under first-year head coach Dr. Bragg Stockton. The Cougars finished the year ranked 14th nationally. HOUSTON (1988) Gaspard’s first coaching job came at Houston in 1988 under the legendary Stockton, where he tutored with the Cougars’ infielders. Houston posted a 33-22-3 overall record in 1988. Gaspard’s first game as an assistant coach came on Feb. 13, 1988 against Texas Lutheran.

SNAPSHOTS During Gaspard’s first stint on the UA staff, the Crimson Tide posted a 320-127 (.732) record and played in six NCAA Regionals and made three College World Series appearances (1996, 1997 and 1999) in a four-year span.

Gaspard got his first head coaching job at Northwestern State in 2002 and compiled a 211128 (.622) record in his tenure at Northwestern State. During those six years, he led the Demons to a pair of Southland Conference championships, one SLC Tournament championship and a berth in the 2005 NCAA Baton Rouge (La.) Regional. After the 2007 season, Gaspard decided to return to Alabama, where he would be reunited with Wells. After two years as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator, Gaspard helped the Tide regain its baseball momentum and for that he was named the Tide’s 30th head coach on Sept. 2, 2009 after Wells retirement. “It’s the ultimate for me and I know I’m extremely excited and honored to take over the program and move forward and strengthen where we’re at right now,” Gaspard said. “I consider Alabama to be the greatest University and we play in the greatest conference (SEC) against the top competition that there is in the country in college baseball.” With his pedigree, energy and intensity, Gaspard is sure to be a success with the Crimson Tide program. CREDENTIALS Gaspard has enjoyed success at every level of his baseball career as a player, assistant coach and head coach. The first-year Crimson Tide head coach has worked more than 1,500 games and his teams have compiled a 1,052-530-3 (.665) overall record. Those teams have won 10 conference championships, nine conference tournament titles and played in 14 NCAA Regionals. In addition, Gaspard has played or coached on 16 teams that have won 40 or more

games and three of his teams have 50 or more wins in a season. THE COACHING TREE Gaspard has been associated with some of college baseball’s top coaches, including Skip Bertman, Bragg Stockton and Jim Wells. Bertman changed the face of baseball in the Southeastern Conference and led the Tigers to five national championships. Stockton had great influence on the Gaspard’s career and offered the young infielder his first coaching position. That first job has turned into 20 years of coaching excellence, with Gaspard demanding the best of his players on and off the field. Gaspard played a vital role in the revival of Alabama baseball in the mid 1990s. His keen eye for talent and his ability to teach the game of baseball sent the Crimson Tide to College World Series in 1996, 1997 and 1999. THE PLAYER Gaspard’s four-year collegiate career at LSU and Houston saw his teams compile a 148-91 (.619) overall record, post two, 40-win seasons and play in two NCAA Regionals (1985 and 1987). He began his career at LSU in 1984 and 1985, earning one varsity letter on Coach Skip Bertman’s first LSU squad in 1984. The 1984 edition of the Tigers posted a 32-23 overall record. The 1985 team went 41-18 en route to the SEC Western Division championship and collected the school’s first NCAA Regional appearance since 1975. He transferred to Houston following his sophomore season and played two years for the Cougars and lettered in 1986 and 1987. He played on Coach Rolan Walton’s final UH team in 1986, helping the Cougars to a 35-23 overall

UL LAFAYETTE (1989-92) Gaspard spent four years at Louisiana Lafayette and the Ragin’ Cajuns won four conference titles during his time on campus. ULL posted a 183-74 (.712) during Gaspard’s time under Coach Mike Boulanger. In 1989, the Ragin’ Cajuns posted a 49-13 overall record and captured the American South Conference championship with an 11-4 record. The following year, ULL (47-18, 11-4) repeated as conference champs and advanced to the NCAA South I Regional in Baton Rouge, La., before losing to LSU and Southern Mississippi in consecutive games. The Ragin’ Cajuns (49-20, 14-4) pulled off the three-peat in 1991, winning its third straight American South Conference championship. ULL beat Texas, Clemson and Mississippi State during the regular season. The Ragin’ Cajuns advanced to the NCAA Regionals for the second straight year, finishing runner-up to eventual national champion LSU in the NCAA South II Regional in Baton Rouge. After an opening-round loss to Texas A&M, ULL bounced back to beat Northwestern State, South Alabama and Texas A&M, before dropping the title game to the Tigers. In 1992, ULL (38-23) finished first in the Sun Belt Conference Western Division and played in the school’s third straight NCAA Regional, losing two straight games to Long Beach State and VCU in the NCAA Central Regional in Austin, Texas. NORTHWESTERN STATE (1993-94) Gaspard hooked up with Jim Wells for the first time in 1993 and the two built a close friendship and working relationship over the next 15 years. In his two seasons at NSU, the Demons went 8529 (.737) and won two Southland Conference championships, one SLC Tournament championship and played in one NCAA Tournament. The 1993 NSU squad went 40-14 en route to the SLC title. The 1994 team won a school-record 45 games en route to a 45-15 slate and a berth in the NCAA Midwest II Regional in Stillwater, Okla. The Demons won eight games against top 25 clubs in 1994 and set 19 school and SLC records en route to an 18-6 conference mark. ALABAMA (1995-2001) Gaspard followed Wells to Alabama and played a prominent role in the revival of Crimson Tide baseball. During his seven years on the staff, the Crimson Tide posted a 320-127 (.732) record and played in six NCAA Regionals and made three College World Series appearances (1996, 1997 and 1999) in a four-year span. Alabama also won the 1996 SEC Championship and captured four SEC Tournament (1995, 1996, 1997 and 1999) championships. The Crimson Tide was also the No. 1 seed at the 1996 and

1997 CWS, the first team in history to be the top seed in consecutive World Series. Gaspard was responsible for bringing in some of the nation’s top baseball players with five top 20 classes, including three straight top 10 finishes. One of his star pupils, Lance Cormier, earned All-American honors on the field and in the classroom and left the Capstone as the all-time leader in appearances, innings pitched, wins and strikeouts. A fourth-round draft pick, Cormier now pitches for the Tampa Bay Rays. Under Gaspard’s watch, Alabama has some fine defensive units. Alabama led the SEC and ranked fourth nationally with a school-record .971 fielding mark in 1996. The following year, Alabama led the league and ranked ninth nationally with a .968 fielding mark in 1997. The 1997 squad was the most prolific offensive team in school history, leading the nation in total hits (860), runs scored (679), total bases (1,571) and slugging percentage (.622). The Crimson Tide also ranked second nationally in home runs (160), home runs per game (2.29) and wins (56), all school records. NORTHWESTERN STATE (2002-07) Gaspard was named the head coach at Northwestern State following the 2001 season, following in the footsteps of Jim Wells, Dave Van Horn and John Cohen, all who had left the Louisiana school for SEC head coaching jobs. His six-year record was 211-128 (.622), which included two Southland Conference Championships, one SLC Tournament Championship and one NCAA Regional appearance. Under Gaspard guidance the Demons had 28 All-Southland Conference selections, including 12 first-team picks. Gaspard had two players win major awards under his watch, including 2002 Southland Conference Pitcher of the Year O.J. King and 2004 CoSIDA/ESPN the Magazine Academic All-American Bobby Barbier. Gaspard led the Demons to a pair of SLC Championships in 2002 and 2005. His first NSU squad captured the Southland Conference championship and finished with a 4317 overall record, including a 14-10 mark in league play. The Demons ranked third nationally in fielding (.974), 11th in double plays (1.17), 12th in earned run average (3.54) and 18th in winning percentage (.717). The 2002 NSU team set the school record with 612 hits and 53 sacrifice bunts. Despite a solid RPI and key wins over South Alabama and Minnesota, the Demons were left out of the NCAA Tournament. The 2003 team posted a 35-22 record, including a 16-11 mark in SLC play, and ranked 12th nationally with 2.02 stolen bases per game. Tigger Lyles was 19th nationally with 0.59 thefts per game. The 2004 Demons posted a 33-23 record and 16-9 mark in conference play. NSU set a school record with 134 stolen bases to rank sixth nationally with 2.34 thefts per game. Lyles and Josh Boop were among the nation’s top stolen base artists with 0.52 stolen bases per game to tank 29th nationally. Gaspard led the 2005 NSU team to a 41-20 overall record and his first trip to the NCAA Regionals. The Demons posted a 22-5 conference record, setting the SLC record for wins, en route to the league championship and a berth in the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional. The 2005 squad also set the school record with 19 saves. Daniel Desclouds (10) and Blake Jones (8) accounted for 18 of the saves and both ranked among the nation’s top 50 closers. The Demons compiled a 3328 record in 2006 and set the school record with 522 1/3 innings pitched. Gaspard was 25-28 in his final season at NSU in 2007.

BASEBALL

ALABAMA (2008-09) Gaspard came back to Alabama as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator on July 9, 2007. He spent the last two years as the Crimson Tide chief assistant coach and ace recruiter. Alabama went 72-49 over the last two seasons and played in 2009 NCAA Clemson Regional. The 2009 squad was one of the most prolific offensive squads in the nation as the Tide ranked among the nation’s top 25 teams in home runs per game (7th), slugging percentage (7th), home runs (8th), doubles (12th), runs scored (18th), runs per game (18th), batting average (22nd), doubles per game (23rd) and total hits (25th).

ALABAMA

Dax Norris, one of the cornerstones of the University of Alabama’s baseball revival under former head coach Jim Wells, begins his third season as assistant coach for the Crimson Tide. He was promoted to assistant coach and recruiting coordinator in September when Mitch Gaspard was named the school’s head coach after Wells’ retirement. Norris joined the Tide staff following the 2007 season after a sparkling 11-year professional baseball career with the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros organizations. A hard-nosed player, Norris brings that same work ethic and intensity as the Crimson Tide’s hitting coach and recruiting coordinator. He also tutors the Alabama catchers. In 2009, Norris and Gaspard were named the SEC Assistant Coaches of the Year by SEBaseball. com. His arrival has paid immediate dividends as the Crimson Tide was one of the top offensive units in the country in 2009. They ranked in the top-25 nationally in nine offensive categories, including six top-20 marks, home runs per game (7th, 1.84), SNAPSHOTS slugging percentage (7th, .566), home runs (8th, 107), runs scored (18th, 509), runs per game (18th, Dax and his wife, Rene’. 8.8), doubles (12th, 142). The Tide also ranked 22nd in hitting (.330), 23rd in doubles per game (2.35) and 25th in total hits (689) in 2009. Norris tutored Kent Matthes, the 2009 SEC Player of the Year, who led the nation with a school record 28 home runs. Matthes, a fourth-round draft pick by the Colorado Rockies, hit .358 with 28 home runs and 81 RBI. Matthes also ranked second nationally in home runs per game (0.50), third in slugging percentage (.858), sixth in RBI per game (1.45), 11th in RBI (81) and 12th in total bases (175). Matthes, who was a finalist for several national awards, was named the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association District III Player of the Year in 2009. In addition to Matthes, Norris also tutored four more First-Team All-SEC picks in 2009, including second baseman Ross Wilson, shortstop Josh Rutledge, third baseman Jake Smith and left fielder Taylor Dugas, who was named to the Freshman All-SEC squad. In 2008, Norris worked with All-SEC performers Alex Avila and Brandon May. Avila hit .343 with 17 home runs and 62 RBI as a junior in 2008. He was selected in the fifth round of the 2008 MLB Draft and made his Major League debut with the Detroit Tigers on Aug. 6, 2009. He is the first player under Norris to reach the big leagues. May, who was a 36th round draft pick in 2009 by the Chicago Cubs, hit .347 with 12 home runs and 69 RBI in 2009 and led the SEC with 39 RBI in 30 league games. In 2008, he hit .365 with five home runs and 50 RBI. Vin DiFazio was a12th round draft pick by the Texas Rangers following the 2009 season. Norris began his coaching career at Niceville (Fla.) High School, where he spent the 2007 season working under former UA assistant coach Kevin Berry. Norris worked with the Niceville hitters and catchers and one of his star pupils is current UA junior Jimmy Nelson, who earned all-state honors in high school and freshman infielder Danny Collins, who also earned all-state honors in high school.

BASEBALL

A journeyman minor leaguer, Norris played 11 seasons with the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros organizations, reaching the Triple-A level with both clubs. Norris was voted on to the 2002 Triple-A All-Star team. He played in 846 career minor league games and batted .265 (771-for-2,914) with 73 home runs and 421 RBI. He had a career-high 122 hits and 72 RBI for the Greenville (S.C.) Braves (Class AA, Southern League) in 2000 and smacked a career-high 15 home runs in Greenville in 1999. During the off-seasons, Norris played in the Venezuelan and Dominican winter leagues and also ran his own hitting school. A 23rd-round draft pick by the Atlanta Braves in 1996, Norris was a twoyear starter for the Crimson Tide. He batted .283 (72-for-254) as a junior in 1995 with three home runs and 34 RBI in 63 starts. Norris was named to the 1995 NCAA East Regional All-Tournament Team at the Clemson, S.C., where he batted .316 (6-for-19) with two runs scored and five RBI in five games. He also turned in 36 errorless chances behind the plate. He was elected team captain on the Crimson Tide’s 1996 SEC Championship team that finished with a then-school record 50 wins. Alabama also captured the 1996 SEC Tournament championship at the Hoover Met and hosted the school’s first-ever NCAA Regional. Norris led UA to its first College World Series appearance since 1983 during his senior year. He batted .370 (105-for284) with seven home runs and 49 RBI en route to being named First-Team All-American by the Super Smith Team. He was also a First-Team All-SEC honoree and American Baseball Coaches Association All-South Region pick. Prior to playing at Alabama, Norris was a two-year starter at Central Alabama Community College in Alexander City, Ala. A native of LaGrange, Ga., Norris was born Jan. 14, 1973. He is married to the former Rene’ Simpkins.

ALABAMA

Kyle Bunn, regarded as one the top pitching coaches and recruiters in college baseball, joined head baseball coach Mitch Gaspard’s Alabama baseball staff this fall after two highly successful stints at Mississippi and Clemson. Bunn brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Alabama staff as 23 pitchers coached by him have been selected in the Major League Baseball Draft, with one current big-league connection, Ehren Wassermann of the Chicago White Sox. “Kyle is a dynamic recruiter,” Alabama head coach Mitch Gaspard said. “What he is going to give us is an opportunity to really go after the elite arms in the country and he did a very impressive presentation for us, showing us how he goes about getting those top arms in the country. “I know he is a relentless worker and he’s the perfect fit for us. For our program, he was the very best fit of anyone we could have gone after and we feel very fortunate and excited that he felt the same way we did and we were able to get him here. We’re excited as a coaching staff to have him here and our players are looking forward to getting with Kyle on the pitching side and start to develop that relationship with him. For our first test here to go out and get a pitching coach, we did exactly what we wanted to do. It’s going to be a real good fit in all areas for us.” Bunn comes to Alabama after spending the last two seasons as the pitching coach at Clemson University. He will serve as the Crimson Tide pitching coach on Gaspard’s first UA staff and will also play a vital role in recruiting. He has served as a Division I coach eight seasons, and all eight teams have ended the year with a winning record. “I look forward to the journey ahead with the Alabama baseball program,” Bunn said. “Coach Gaspard has always presented himself to me as professional, charismatic and enthusiastic. He and Dax (Norris) exude energy, passion and desire on a daily basis for the University of Alabama, and those qualities were the leading factors in me wanting to join their staff. “In my previous time in the SEC, I always pictured Alabama as a very talented team, but I viewed them more as a blue collar, hard-nosed team that brought a battle to the diamond on a daily basis. The passion that I want to bring with me to this program will involve being hard-nosed, mentally tough, disciplined and - above all - developmental. There is a lot that I want to teach these pitchers about the process and what it takes to be successful on the mound. This process will involve organization on a daily basis, but it all starts with energy and enthusiasm.” “I am ecstatic about the opportunity that we as a coaching staff have to

work together to bring the University of Alabama to the forefront in college baseball. The fans and the players deserve the energy we will bring everyday to the practice field, and I can’t wait to get started.” During his two-year stint at Clemson, Bunn built one of the nation’s finest pitching staffs under head coach Jack Leggett, having had five pitchers drafted in that span, the most in the Atlantic Coast Conference. In 2009, Clemson ranked fifth nationally with an earned-run average of 3.68 while compiling a 44-22 record and reaching the NCAA Super Regionals. The ERA was more than a run less per game (4.74) than Clemson’s 2008 mark. Eight of Clemson’s wins in 2009 came against Top 25 opponents. The Tigers also ranked 11th nationally in fewest hits (8.62) allowed per nine innings, ranked 25th in strikeouts (8.3) per nine innings and 26th in walks (3.07) per nine innings in the final 2009 NCAA stats. Prior to his arrival at Clemson, Bunn spent six years at Ole Miss under head coach Mike Bianco. During his tenure in Oxford, Bunn saw 16 of his pitchers taken in the MLB Draft, eight of which had not been drafted previously. He tutored some of the finest pitching talent in the nation as the Rebels posted three top-20 finishes and five top-30 finishes among the national ERA leaders. In addition, 13 different Rebels pitchers ranked among the top-100 nationally in a number of statistical categories. Prior to Mississippi, Bunn spent the 2001 season as an assistant coach at Jefferson Davis Community College in Brewton, Ala., where he worked as the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator. Bunn also helped coach Jefferson Davis Community College to the NJCAA Division II Region 22 Southern Division Championship. One of his star pupils was right-hander Ehren Wassermann, who later signed with Samford and his now pitching for the Chicago White Sox. A 1999 graduate of The Citadel with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and minor in Law & Legal Processes, the 33-year-old was a three-year letter winner for the Bulldogs, earning the team’s Ace Pitching Award in 1999. He helped The Citadel to back-to-back Southern Conference titles in both 1998 and 1999, and he was a Southern Conference Academic Honor Roll member. Bunn started for the Bulldogs in the 1999 Southern Conference Tourney Championship game against Western Carolina, as he struck out 11 batters in a complete-game victory. Bunn was a cadet captain and regimental liaison for baseball to the South Carolina Corps of Cadets. He was also a recipient of the Joseph T. Isaac, Jr., Memorial Scholarship at The Citadel. Bunn was born on Nov. 8, 1976, in Georgetown, S.C.

1977 MLB Hall of Fame Member - Joe Sewell 122

Joe Sewell had a knack for this “funny game.” That knack has made him the only player in Crimson Tide baseball annals to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in the quaint little town of Cooperstown, N.Y. The only other Crimson Tider in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is New York Yankees legendary broadcaster Mel Allen, who along with Florida alum Red Barber, earned induction in 1978 as the inaugural winner of the Ford C. Frick Award. Inducted in the Hall of Fame in 1977, Sewell’s career spanned 14 seasons with the Cleveland Indians and New York Yankees. From the moment he left the Capstone as student body president in 1919, Sewell’s major league career was the stuff dreams are made. After leading the Crimson Tide to the 1919 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association championship, Sewell was selected by the Indians and signed with the New Orleans, La., team in the Southern Association. The Titus, Ala., native made his major league debut with the Indians in the heat of a pennant drive in 1920, after their everyday shortstop was killed after being hit with a submarine pitch. Sewell rose to the challenge and batted .329 over the final 22 games of the season to help the Indians clinch the American League pennant. Alongside future Hall of Famers Stanley Coveleski, Tris Speaker and Bill Wambagass, Sewell and the Indians disposed of the Brooklyn Robins in seven games, taking the 1920 series five games to two. Sewell batted only .174 (4-for-23) in his first trip to the fall classic, but was solid in the field in all seven games helping the Indians lay claim to the World Series title. He played 11 years for the Indians before joining the New York Yankees roster for the final three years of his outstanding major league career. Sewell once again tasted greatness with Yankees in 1932, when New York beat the Chicago Cubs in the most talked about World Series in history. The Yankees won 107 games in 1932 and swept the Cubs in the bestof-seven fall classic. The Yankees took the first two games at Yankee Stadium (12-6 and 5-2) before moving to Wrigley Field for games three and four. In game three, Babe Ruth, a teammate and close friend of Sewell, made baseball history. And his fifth inning at-bat off Chicago hurler Charley Root is still the most talked about home run in baseball history. Ruth slugged a three-run home run in the first inning and legend has it that after taking two called strikes in his third at-bat, the Sultan of Swat pointed to center field before he slammed a two-run home run over the head of Johnny Moore for what has become the most debated home run in the history of the fall classic. The Yankees won the game 7-5 and then closed out the Cubs the following day (13-6) to win the 1932 World Championship. In a lineup filled with Hall of Famers from Frank Crosetti to Bill Dickey to Lou Gehrig to Ruth, Sewell batted .333 (5-for-15) in the four games with six runs scored and two RBI. He was on base when Ruth slugged his first inning home run in game three and witnessed the famed “called shot” from the Yankees dugout. Sewell was also close friend and roommate with Yankee legend Lou Gehrig, whose career was tragically cut short due to ALS in the 1930s. In 14 major league seasons, Sewell batted .312 (2,226-of-7,132) with 1,051 career RBI. He played in nearly 2,000 career games and logged over 7,000 at-bats for the Indians and Yankees. He also had more than 2,000 hits, 1,000 runs scored and 1,000 RBI. He hit .300 or better in 10 of his 14 seasons in the big leagues. His best season was 1923 when he batted .353 (195-for-553) with the Indians. He collected a career-high 204 hits with the Indians in 1925, when he posted a .336 (204-for-608) batting average. An outstanding fielder, Sewell led the American League in putouts and assists four times in his career and led the league in fielding per-

centage three times. A “singles hitter” overshadowed by some the game’s greatest sluggers, Sewell set five major league records that continue to pass the test of time: fewest strikeouts in a season (3, two times); consecutive games without a strikeout (115 games); consecutive at-bats without a strikeout (437 at-bats); most seasons of 500 or more at-bats with fewer than four strikeouts (4); fewest career strikeouts (114). Throughout his sparkling 14-year career at the pinnacle of the baseball profession, Sewell turned in numbers that are simply amazing to the average baseball fan. For instance, his 114 career strikeouts in over 7,000 career at-bats averages out to one strikeout for every 63 at-bats, one strikeout in every 16 games played. And still years later, in 1964, at age 66, Sewell, a Tuscaloosa resident and businessman since his college days, took over the Crimson Tide’s baseball program as head coach. In his seven-year tenure, Alabama compiled a 114-99 (.535) record, which included the 1968 SEC Championship and a trip to the NCAA District III Playoffs in North Carolina. Sewell was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in 1977, along with Ernie Banks, Martin Dihigo, Pop Llyod, Al Lopez and Amos Rusie. He is one of 11 Alabama natives to be enshrined in Cooperstown, joining fellow legends Hank Aaron (Mobile), Monte Irvin (Columbia), Heinie Manush (Tuscumbia), Willie Mays (Westfield), Willie McCovery (Mobile), Satchel Paige (Mobile), Ozzie Smith (Mobile), Don Sutton (Clio), Billy Williams (Whistler) and Early Wynn (Hartford). Sewell died on March 6, 1990 in Mobile, Ala., after a lengthy illness. At the time of his death he was the oldest living baseball Hall of Famer at 91 years of age.

Ford C. Frick Award - Mel Allen Mel Allen is as much a part of the national pastime as the squeeze play, hot dogs, and pennants flapping in the breeze. And he never played in the big leagues. Instead he called the game, and that allowed the fans to play the games over and over in their minds. His voice is the voice that millions of fans associate with the game of baseball. Born Melvin Allen Israel, the son of a traveling textile representative in Birmingham, and raised all over Alabama, he was a spindly student manager for the Crimson Tide football and baseball teams when he got his chance to announce games. His first assignment behind the microphone was doing play-byplay of a football game between Tulane and Alabama, his beloved alma mater. While a student at The University of Alabama, he sold shoes, coached speech and debate, and ultimately earned his law degree before winning an audition to announce in New York for CBS Radio. After winning that audition with CBS in 1936, Allen broadcast his first World Series for the network in 1938. He joined the Yankees the following year and stayed for 25 more, delighting millions of baseball fans with his warm sign-on -- “Hello, everybody!” -- and his trademark phrases “How about that!” and “Going, going, gone!” Allen was the Voice of the New York Yankees from 1939 to 1964, the team that aroused more passion than any other in baseball. With his vivid phrases and pleasing Alabama drawl, he called many of the great events in the game: the Babe’s good-bye, Larsen’s perfect game in the 1956 World Series, Mantle’s heroics, Maris’ record-shattering summer (1961), Casey’s barbs, Yogi’s convoluted pronouncements. “Mel Allen meant as much to Yankee tradition as legends like Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio and Mantle,” Yankees owner George Steinbrenner said. “He was the Voice of the Yankees.” In an era before television, millions of radio listeners around the nation saw the game through the descriptions of this thoughtful and articulate Alabamian who prided himself on being both a reporter and storyteller.

BASEBALL

Allen moved to the Milwaukee Braves in 1965, went on to broadcast for the Cleveland Indians and handled a variety of assignments for NBC. He returned as the Voice of the New York Yankees in 1970s and began a 19-year association with This Week in Baseball as host of the popular program. In his 58 years of sports broadcasting, Allen did it all. He called thousands of Yankees games, 24 Major League Baseball World Series, 20 All-Star Games, 14 Rose Bowls, five Orange Bowls, two Sugar Bowls, and over 2,000 newsreels. A winner of numerous industry, listener and viewer awards, Allen is a member of National Baseball Hall of Fame (as the first Ford C. Frick winner in June, 1978), National (USA) Sportswriters and Broadcasters Hall of Fame (March, 1972), The American Sportscasters Association Hall of Fame (1985), The Radio Hall of Fame (1988), The Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, The University of Alabama Communication Hall of Fame (1995) and was enshrined to Monument Park at Yankee Stadium (July 25, 1999). Once he sat next to a weakened Lou Gehrig in the dugout before a game. Gehrig would soon die from the disease that forced his emotional, early farewell from the game. “Mel, sometimes your descriptions of the game are the only thing that keeps me going.” Mel went into the tunnel and cried like a baby. How about that?

1983 Golden Spikes Award Winner - Dave Magadan 124

Never before or since has an Alabama baseball player had a season at the plate like David Magadan did in 1983. The Alabama junior shattered school and Southeastern Conference records that still stand today in becoming the 1983 Golden Spikes Award winner, presented annually by the United States Baseball Federation. Magadan, who concluded the 1983 season with six school career records (at-bats, runs, hits, RBI, doubles, total bases and batting average), was a major contributor in Alabama’s national runner up spot to Texas at the College World Series. In addition, he paced the Crimson Tide to the NCAA South Region and Southeastern Conference titles en route to a 46-11 record, one the most successful campaigns in school history. He batted an incredible nation-leading .525 (114-for-217) as a junior, was voted the 1983 College “Player of the Year” by Baseball America, and led the team in hits (114), doubles (31), total bases (180) and slugging percentage (.829) during his record-setting campaign. Magadan was a consensus First-Team All-America selection by The American Baseball Coaches Association, The Sporting News, Baseball America and The National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association during the 1983 season and was a three-time All-SEC selection at the Capstone. He hit safely in his initial 27 games as a freshman in 1981 and batted an incredible 10-for-11 (.909) at the 1983 SEC Tournament in Starkville, Miss., which included a five-hit game (2 doubles, 2 HRs) against Florida in second-round action en route to being named the Most Valuable Player. He also set the CWS record by hitting safely in his first eight trips to the plate and wound up batting .550 (11-for-20) at Omaha, Neb., in five games. After his freshman season at Alabama, he led his American Legion team to the 1981 American Legion World Series Championship and in the process was named the “Sports Club Amateur of the Year” when Tampa Post 248 won the national title. Magadan is also recognized in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum for his amateur accomplishments in 1981. The Tampa, Fla., native played in 162 games in his Alabama career and batted .439 (268-for-610) with 64 doubles, 14 home runs and 188 RBI. His .439 batting average still ranks among the leaders in Division I baseball and still sits atop the SEC standings as the highest career average in league history. Magadan still holds Alabama records for highest single-season batting average (.525, 1983), highest career batting average (.439, 198183), single-season hits (114, 1983), single-season (31, 1983) and career doubles (64, 1981-83) and single-season RBI (95, 1983). He also set the Alabama standards for highest batting average for a freshman (.399, 1981) and junior (.525, 1983) and most RBI (95, 1983) by a junior. Magadan also shares the single-game record with five hits, a feat he accomplished an Alabama record three times against Alabama Christian (April 16, 1983), Florida (May 13, 1983) and Arizona State (June 4, 1983). He was drafted by the Boston Red Sox out of Tampa’s Jesuit High School and then was one of six UA players taken in the 1983 MLB Draft. He signed with the New York Mets and was assigned to the Columbia, S.C. Mets in the Class A South Atlantic League in his first pro ball assignment. In that first summer, Magadan batted .336 with three home runs and 32 RBI for the Class A Mets. Magadan made his major league debut against the Chicago Cubs on Sept. 17, 1986 as the starting first baseman at Shea Stadium. In the game, Mags went 3-for-4 with two RBI, including the game-winner in

the eighth inning that clinched the National League Eastern Division title for the eventual World Champions. In 1990, he finished third in the NL batting race with a career-best .328 (148-for-451) average. He played 15 years in the Major Leagues before retiring from the game after the 2000 season. In those 15 seasons, he batted .289 (1,165-for-4,031) with 41 home runs and 483 RBI in 1,491 career bigleague games. After his playing days, he was named roving minor league hitting instructor by the San Diego Padres before being promoted as the hitting coach for the National League San Diego Padres prior to the 2003 season.

1999 Dick Howser Finalist - Andy Phillips Andy Phillips is clearly the most decorated player in the history of Alabama baseball. A member of coach Jim Wells’ first signing class, Philips rewrote the UA record books and in the process took the Crimson Tide baseball program to new heights with three trips to the College World Series in his four-year career. His impact was not limited to the Crimson Tide baseball family as his talents were recognized nationally by writers, broadcasters and professional scouts. A consensus All-America selection as a senior, Phillips was named the 1999 National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association District III Player of the Year and finished runner up to Baylor’s Jason Jennings as the winner of the Dick Howser Trophy, presented by the NCBWA to the best player in college baseball. Florida State’s Marshall McDougal, Cal State Fullerton’s Spencer Oborn and Rice’s Mario Ramos were also finalists for the Howser Trophy, named for the former Florida State infielder and Kansas City Royals manager. Phillips was also named First-Team All-American by the NCBWA as well as member of the 1999 NCBWA Super All-American squad. In addition to the NCBWA honors, Phillips was also named FirstTeam All-American by College Baseball Insider and was Third-Team All-America selection by Baseball America, Collegiate Baseball and the American Baseball Coaches Association. The Demopolis native wrapped up his Alabama career as the school record-holder in eight career statistical categories, including most games played (244), games started (224), at-bats (904), runs scored (222), total hits (322), home runs (61), RBI (226) and total bases (590). In addition, he ranked second in career doubles (63) and triples (11), and was third in assists (537) and 10th in walks (86). As a senior in 1999, Phillips set the standard of excellence for Crimson Tide baseball. He played in 64 games and batted .398 (103-for259) with 22 home runs and 66 RBI. Phillips also added 71 runs scored 22 doubles, 30 walks and 16 stolen bases for an Alabama team that captured the SEC Tournament Championship and finished third at the College World Series. He also set Alabama single-season records for total bases (203) and set records for most home runs (22) and RBI (66) by a shortstop at Alabama. The 22 home runs are the most by an Alabama senior. The former Tide shortstop also set the SEC record with a 36-game hitting streak during his final season at Alabama, breaking the old standard of 33 games held by LSU second baseman Todd Walker (1993). During his record-setting hitting streak, Phillips batted .407 (66for-162) with 17 home runs and 45 RBI. In 1998, he was named The Sporting News National Player of the Week (April 1, 1998) when he batted .500 (8-of-16) with six runs scored, three home runs and 11 RBI in wins over Southern Miss and Miss. State. Phillips was just as successful off the field, earning his degree from Alabama in 1999. He was an active member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and is accomplished singer. Twice during his career he sang the National Anthem prior to a Crimson Tide home game at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. A three-time All-SEC selection, Phillips was also named to the 1999 SEC Good Works Team for his many hours of community service.

2002 Johnny Bench Award - Jeremy Brown 126

The most decorated catcher in University of Alabama baseball history, Jeremy Brown was named the winner of the 2002 Johnny Bench Award, presented annually by the Greater Wichita Area Sports Commission to the nation’s best catcher. “The Greater Wichita Sports Commission would like to congratulate all of the award finalists and especially Jeremy Brown, the 2002 Johnny Bench National Collegiate Catcher of the Year,” Bob Hanson, President and CEO of the Greater Wichita Sports Commission, said. “Jeremy represents the University of Alabama in a remarkable manner.” Brown edged out Southern California junior Alberto Concepcion and University of Houston junior Chris Snyder to win the 2002 award. “Wow, this is great,” Brown said upon receiving the 2002 Johnny Bench Award. “I’d like to thank my family and my coaches for all of their support over the past four years. It’s truly an honor to receive this award from the best acatcher of all time, Mr. Johnny Bench.” It is the highest honor awarded to an Alabama baseball player since David Magadan earned the 1983 Golden Spikes Award, presented annually to the best player in college baseball. The Golden Spikes award is the baseball equivalent to college football’s Heisman Trophy award. Bench, a native of Oklahoma City, Okla., and Major League Baseball Hall of Famer, was on hand to present the award. Bench was the starting catcher for the Cincinnati Reds back-to-back World Series championship teams in 1975 and 1976. Former Los Angeles Dodger first baseman Steve Garvey delivered the keynote address to more than 350 people in attendance at the Grand Eagle Ballroom at the downtown Wichita Hyatt Regency hotel. The banquet recognizes the achievements and dedication of local youth, high school, college and professional coaches in the Wichita area. Brown was joined in attendance by his mother, Lila, and younger brother Dustin. Alabama head baseball coach Jim Wells was also in attendance to see his All-American catcher win the award symbolizing the best college catcher in the nation. A two-year starter behind the plater for Alabama, Brown was a runner up to Baylor’s Kelly Shoppach in the 2001 voting, is one of two Southeastern Conference catchers to win the Johnny Bench Award, joining LSU’s Brad Cresse, who won the inaugural award in 2000. A native of Hueytown, Ala., he appeared in 66 games for Alabama as a senior and compiled a .320 average (70-for-219) with 11 home runs and 64 RBI. He also set the UA single season record with 69 walks, surpassing the previous total of 66 walks held by Bret Elbin in 1983. Brown made only one error for Alabama in his final 119 games at the Capstone. He set the UA single-season record with a 1.000 fielding percentage in 2001 and made only one error in 2002, compiling a .998 fielding clip. He was second in the SEC with seven pickoffs and ranked among the league leaders by throwing out 43 percent of his attempted base stealers. A first-round pick of the Oakland Athletics, Brown concluded his UA career as the all-time leader for games played (251), games started (251), runs scored (244), walks (207) and putouts (1,660). He is the only player in SEC history with 300 career hits (307) and 200 career walks (207). In addition, Brown was named Second-Team All-America by the National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association and was a FirstTeam All-SEC pick for the second consecutive year. Brown was also chosen as the District III Player of the Year by the National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association and was a finalist for the 2002 Dick Howser Trophy, presented by the St. Petersburg Area Chamber of Commerce and Verizon.

2003 District III Player of the Year - Beau Hearod Beau Hearod went where few University of Alabama players had gone before. The slugger from Jennings, La., had a phenomenal season and in the process led the Southeastern Conference in both home runs (20) and RBI (82) in his final campaign with the Crimson Tide. A first-team All-SEC selection Hearod became the first Alabama player to lead the SEC in home runs since Doug Duke smacked a league-leading 27 four-baggers as a junior in 1986. Overall, Hearod was just the fourth player in Alabama history to lead the league in home runs, joining Stan Moss (7, 1968), Butch Hobson (13, 1973) and Duke as the league’s home run champ. Hearod was also the first Crimson Tide slugger to lead the league in RBI since Duke’s league best total of 82 RBI in 1986. After putting up those staggering numbers during the rugged 62game season, which included 34 games against SEC teams, Hearod was tabbed as the District III Player of the Year by the NCBWA, marking the second consecutive year and the third time since the inception of the award in 1999 an Alabama player has been bestowed player of the year honors in District III. Former UA catcher Jeremy Brown, a first-round draft selection by the Oakland Athletics and 2002 Johnny Bench award winner, was named the 2002 District III Player of the Year following an outstanding senior season. Andy Phillips, the school’s all-time home run leader, won the inaugural District III Player of the Year award in 1999 and was one of the three finalists for the prestigious Dick Howser Trophy, which is presented to the NCBWA Player of the Year. Other 2003 district winners included Boston College pitcher Chris Lambert (District I), St. John’s outfielder Mike Rozema (District II), South Carolina lefty David Marchbanks (District IV), Ohio State pitcher Scott Lewis (District V), Nebraska first baseman Matt Hooper (District VI), Tulane first baseman and left hand pitcher Michael Aubrey (District VII) and Southern University shortstop Rickie Weeks (District VII), New Mexico first baseman Billy Belcher (District VIII) and Arizona State shortstop Dustin Pedrioa (District IX). From the ranks of these standouts, Southern University’s Rickie Weeks was named the winner of the 2003 Dick Howser Trophy. As a senior, Hearod started all 62 games for the Crimson Tide and batted .346 (80-for-231) with 20 home runs and 82 RBI. He was also named the Most Valuable Player of the 2003 SEC Tournament at the Hoover Met, leading the Crimson Tide to its second straight post-season title and sixth under coach Jim Wells. Hearod ranked ninth nationally in home runs (20) and 17th nationally with 0.32 home runs per game. He was sixth in total RBI and ninth with 1.32 RBI per game. He also led the SEC and ranked 27th nationally with a whopping .719 slugging percentage. In his three-year career with Alabama, Hearod played in 177 games and batted .327 (210-for-643) with 40 home runs and 191 RBI. He also added 141 runs scored, 43 doubles, five triples, 61 walks and compiled a .595 career slugging mark. He wrapped up his UA career with five grand slams, one shy of the school, SEC and NCAA record held by Mike Pitisci in 1984.

2004 Freshman of the Year - Wade LeBlanc 128

Wade LeBlanc had a freshman season like no other in the 111-year history of the University of Alabama baseball program. The talented freshman left-hander racked up just about every postseason award available as he became the first rookie in Crimson Tide baseball history to earn National and SEC “Freshman of the Year” honors. He was tabbed the 2004 National Freshman of the Year by Collegiate Baseball newspaper after being named the 2004 SEC Freshman of the Year at the conclusion of the regular season. “That’s unreal,” LeBlanc said when told of the news via telephone. “I thought I had a pretty good season, but the way it ended (against Mississippi State), I did not think I had any chance. I thought I had the ability to have a good season, but nothing quite like this.” LeBlanc said he thought the turning point in the season was the back-to-back wins against No. 6 LSU and No. 10 Florida in early May. He beat LSU 8-2 on May 1 in Baton Rouge and then shutout the high-powered Gators in Tuscaloosa on May 7, allowing just four hits and striking out nine batters. “I guess the LSU and Florida games back-to-back really told me what kind of season I was having,” he said. “This whole season was crazy, I never thought I would have a year like this and be named National and SEC Freshman of the Year. This is a great honor.” LeBlanc finished his outstanding freshman season as he set Alabama freshman records for innings pitched (112.2), strikeouts (98) and complete games (8) and tied the UA freshman record with eight wins on the mound. In 16 games, including 15 starts, LeBlanc posted an 8-4 record and 2.08 ERA this season. He worked 112 2/3 innings and allowed 87 hits, 37 runs and 26 earned runs, with 26 walks and 98 strikeouts. He also threw eight complete games and pitched three shutouts for the Crimson Tide. In addition to his freshman records, LeBlanc also ranks among the school’s top 10 single-season leaders in several categories. His eight complete games tied Gene Lary (1955) for second place on the school’s single-season list. The three shutouts also tied Mike Innes

(1968) and Drew Blocker (1974) for third-place on the single-season shutout charts. LeBlanc’s 112 2/3 innings pitched tied Dean Hayes (1983) for seventh place on the single-season innings list. The 98 strikeouts tied Jarrod Kingrey (1998) and Steve Shoemaker (1994) for 10th place on the singleseason charts at UA. In addition, LeBlanc was tabbed a Third-Team All-American by both the National Collegiate Baseball Writer’s Association (NCBWA) and Baseball America. He was the only freshman named to the 2004 Baseball America All-American team. LeBlanc was also named to the 2004 Freshman All-SEC team and was a Second-Team All-SEC selection as voted by the league’s 12 head coaches. SEBaseball.com tabbed also tabbed him as the 2004 SEC Freshman of the Year as well as a First-Team All-SEC selection. LeBlanc was also selected to the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) All-South Region team.

2009 SEC Player of the Year - Kent Matthes Alabama right fielder Kent Matthes wrapped up a remarkable senior season by winning Southeastern Conference Player of the Year honors and being tabbed a consensus All-American. Matthes is the first Alabama player to win SEC Player of the Year honors since the league began presenting the award in 1993. “Kent Matthes had a great year and deserves this honor,” Alabama head coach Jim Wells said. “It has been great to sit in the dugout and watch him do the things he has done this year. He has had a great year and put up some incredible numbers. You read sometimes about guys having years like this, but he usually isn’t on your team. This year we have that player and it has been fun watching him on and off the field.” He was also named first-team All-American by every baseball publication, including the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA), Baseball America, Collegiate Baseball, National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA), Rivals and PING. “It is a great honor to be recognized by the best college baseball league with all the talented players we have in the SEC,” Matthes said. “It is an honor to be named SEC Player of the Year and to be able to accomplish the feat as a senior. This has been an incredible season and I am happy to be a part of this team.” “I was looking to take advantage of my senior year and make the most of it. I worked hard in the off-season with Dax (Norris) and I got hot early and hit a lot of home runs and they kept coming. I tried to stay focused on winning each game and not the stats.” The senior was named the 2009 NCBWA District III Player of the Year and was a finalist for Golden Spikes Award, a semifinalist for the Dick Howser Trophy and a member of the ABCA All-South Region team. The Orlando, Fla., native hit .358 with 28 home runs and 81 RBI for the Crimson Tide. He led the SEC in home runs, RBI, total bases (174) and slugging percentage (.883). He was also third in runs scored (65) and sixth in hitting. Matthes set the Alabama single-season record with 28 home runs, which tied him for the national home run lead with Middle Tennessee

He broke the UA single-season home run record with his 28th home run against South Carolina on May 20 at the SEC Tournament. He slugged his 27th home run of the season in the Tide’s regular season finale at Auburn on May 16 to tie Doug Duke’s single-season home run record set in 1986. He had four multi-home run games and one walk-off home run in 2009. In addition, 16 of his 28 home runs have tied the game or given Alabama the lead, including 10 go-ahead home runs. He also has nine game-winning RBI. In March, he set the Alabama record with a home run in six straight games and was twice named National and SEC Player of the Week. He hit for the cycle on Feb. 24 against Nicholls State and followed that up with a walk-off 10th inning home run the next day.

The Southeastern Conference Baseball Tournament will be held at Regions Park in the Birmingham suburbs from May 26-30, 2010. This is the 12th consecutive year the tournament has been played in Hoover and the 14th time overall.

2010 SEC Tournament

The SEC Tournament will follow an eight-team double elimination format that is modeled after the College World Series. The tournament field includes the top teams from the league’s Eastern and Western Divisions plus six at-large bids based on conference winning percentage. The tournament began in 1977 with the first and second place teams from the Eastern and Western Division meeting at campus sites to determine the league’s automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament. In 1986, the SEC abandoned divisional play and the top four teams in the league standings qualified for the post-season tournament at campus sites. The 1990 SEC Tournament was played at the Hoover Met, the first off-campus tournament in league history. The format remained the same until the league expanded to 12 teams in 1992. In 1992, the league went back to divisional play and invited the top four teams from each division to the SEC Tournament at the Superdome in New Orleans after Arkansas and South Carolina were added to the league. The SEC instituted another change in 1993 as the league returned to divisional play and had two separate divisional tournaments over the next three years. The overall SEC champion and NCAA automatic qualifier was the team with the best conference winning percentage from the regular season, plus the post-season tournaments. Alabama won the SEC Western Division tournament in Starkville in 1995, the first of three straight tournament wins for the Tide. The 1996 and 1997 tournaments were also eight-team events in Hoover and Columbus, Ga., respectively, but introduced one-game play-ins. The current format was adopted in 1998 and is being used for the 13th consecutive year. Alabama is second all-time with seven SEC Tournament titles, with its last coming in 2003. LSU leads the way with nine SEC Tournament championships, including the last two in a row. Overall, nine of the 12 SEC teams have won at least one SEC Tournament crown since 1977. A total of 17 different head coaches have won at least one SEC Tournament championship. Former Alabama head coach Jim Wells and former LSU coach Skip Bertman have the most all time with six championships. Former Mississippi State head coach Ron Polk has five tournament titles. Florida has the most coaches to win the SEC Tournament with three, including Jay Bergman (1981), Jack Rhine (1982) and Joe Arnold (1984, 1988 and 1991). Alabama has been involved in the two largest championship game crowds in tournament history. The Crimson Tide’s 9-3 win over Arkansas in the 1999 SEC Championship game on May 23 drew 16,165 fans, the largest crowd in tournament history and second-largest crowd in Regions Park annals. The Tide’s 6-2 win over South Carolina on May 26, 2002 drew 13,367 fans, the second-largest in title game in tournament lore. Located eight miles south of Birmingham, Regions Park is regarded by many sports experts as one of the best of its kind in the nation. It seats 10,800 for baseball, but can accommodate over 16,000 when the patio, banquet and side grassy areas are used. The stadium also houses 12 suites and state-ofthe-art dressing and training rooms. Wireless internet access was added in 2004, concourse and signage renovation was done in 2005 and a secondlevel pressbox expansion, new stadium seating and an exterior facelift in 2007 completed a $4.5 million renovation project. A new video scoreboard was added in 2008.

TIE-BREAKERS

SEC Tournament Seeding: The two division champions shall be automatically seeded number one and number two based on winning percentage in conference competition. The rest shall be seeded numbers three through eight based on winning percentage without regard to division. Ties will be broken in the following manner: Two-Team Tie: When two teams are tied for a finish, the following procedure will be used. (1) Won-lost results of head-to-head competition between the two tied teams. (2) If they are divisional opponents: (3) Won-lost percentage within their division (over the 15-game SEC division schedule). (4) Won-lost percentage of the two teams versus the No. 1 team in their division (and proceeding through the No. 6 team, if necessary). If two teams are not divisional opponents: (1) Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No. 1 seed using common opponents only (and proceeding through the No. 8 seed, if necessary). (2) Coin flip by the Commissioner. Three-Team Tie (or more): When three or more teams are tied for a finish, the following procedure will be used (in descending order until the tie is broken): Once the tie has been reduced to two teams, the two-team tiebreaker procedure as stated in No. 1 above will be used. If all three teams are common opponents: (1) Total won-lost percentage of games played among the tied teams. (2) Won-lost percentage of the tied teams versus the No. 1 seed and proceeding through the No. 8 seed, if necessary, using common opponents only. (3) If three or more teams still are tied, the Commissioner will conduct a draw.

The SEC will keep its conference baseball tournament in suburban Birmingham through 2012.
