just fyi, since I haven't seen anyone post about it yet...

In the 3rd inning of today's game, a Jacksonville State left-handed batter hit a majestic drive over the RF fence, but about 10-15 feet foul. The wind-aided ball landed on the concrete portion of the railroad tracks (between the rails), bounced over the second chainlink fence, and landed on Wellborn road.

Since the basketball game had recently ended, a long line of cars was backed-up southbound on Wellborn. Well, sure enough, a student got out of his waiting car (a white SUV I think), picked up the baseball on Wellborn and threw it all the way back into right field from the road.

Wow, that was impressive. I had never seen that before at Olsen. Old army still lives!

redass

that's damn amazing.

Then someone yelling out "can he hit?" made it even better.

can't decide what was better, that moment or the "brawl"...............

BTHOjsu or whatever they are called

Tuberville harped on this during the radio broadcast for seemingly an hour.

Thanks for sharing that. Always loved the wit at Olsen.

Since I've lived in Los Angeles the past twenty years it's been hard to make it back for games at Olsen - I'd catch the Aggies on any west coast swings they had. Being there today reminded me just how much fun a game at Olsen is.

showed up at the game just in time to see it

I wonder how the guys arm feels now, without a warm-up he probably threw his arm out

That was a great moment.
