TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Game 2 of the Tuscaloosa Super Regional between No. 7 Alabama and St. John's is set for 3 p.m. CT.

The Crimson Tide won Game 1 8-0 on Saturday night in front of a record crowd at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. If Alabama comes out victorious on Sunday, it'll head to the College World Series in Omaha for the first time since 1999.

But head coach Rob Vaughn doesn't want his team to "start thinking about punching our ticket," as distractions could enable St. John's to even up the series. Both teams have a lot on the line coming into Sunday and inclement weather could play a role, as the game was initially set for 2 p.m.

Mid 2: Alabama 0, St. John's 0

Top 2:

• Hines and Holt both grounded out to short and second base, respectively. Torres stays stranded in scoring position.

• Lemm grounded out to third base after two pitches, as Torres stayed at second.

• Torres hits a breaking ball up in the zone and it lands in right center field with a couple of bounces at the wall. Torres made it to second for Alabama's first hit of the day.

End 1: Alabama 0, St. John's 0

Bottom 1:

• Neal takes a ball to thigh after McMillan missed a low and outside pitch. He shook it off very quickly. It took 12 pitches and a 3-2 count, but Adams notched his second strikeout with McMillan looking.

• Raifstanger, a Second Team All-Big East member who leads the Red Storm in batting average, strikes out in his first at-bat as he chases a low and outside curveball. Adams' first K came on the seventh pitch of the at-bat.

• LeGrande flies out to shallow center field after two pitches. Quick jog for Fowler in center field and he got the job done easily.

Mid 1: Alabama 0, St. John's 0

Top 1:

• Two strikeouts for St. John's pitcher Evan Chafee, who transferred away from Alabama after redshirting during his freshman year in 2023. His revenge game is off to a great start.

• Neal throws his bat as if he'll walk following a 3-2 count, but the home plate umpire Jeff Wright calls the inside pitch strike three. Neal was angry heading back to the dugout.

• Lebron chases a high four-seam 92 MPH fastball and strikes out after four pitches.

• Fowler takes the first pitch and grounds out to shortstop.

Pregame:

• Game 2 of the Tuscaloosa Super Regional between Alabama and St John's is on ESPNU. It was originally slated for ESPN2, but USC-North Carolina is only in the fourth inning.

• Alabama is the "away" team in today's game. So Bryce Fowler will lead things off here for the Crimson Tide in the top of the first.

• 86 degrees
• Real feel: 96 degrees
• Partly sunny
• 49 percent chance of precipitation
• Wind: SSE 7 mph

Chafee, a redshirt junior, transferred to St. John's after spending his freshman year with the Crimson Tide in 2023. That said, it's where the "redshirt" part of his class title comes into play. This could be a revenge game for him.

"For right now, we've got to show up against a kid that's going to start tomorrow that started his career here," Vaughn said after Game 1. "That guy would love nothing more than to go get us tomorrow."
