Live Blog: Georgia at Alabama Baseball (Game 2, Resumed)

TUSCALOOSA, Ala.— With No. 23 Alabama leading No. 6 Georgia 6-2 in the top of the fifth inning, the second game of Friday night's doubleheader in Tuscaloosa was suspended due to rain.

Continued adverse weather on Saturday pushed the closing frames of that contest further back, to Sunday morning. The Bulldogs won the series opener 19-3 in seven innings on Friday evening.

There is one out in the top of the fifth, and that's where things stand entering Sunday. Georgia shortstop Kolby Branch, who was a power threat in the first game of the series, was batting. Alabama's Riley Quick was pitching but he will not take the mound again.

First pitch on Mother's Day is scheduled for 10 a.m. CT. The remaining innings of this game, as well as the seven-inning series finale, will be live streamed on SEC Network+. The third game of the series is scheduled to start roughly 30 minutes after the end of the second.
