Alabama Baseball was recently removed from betting lines in midwest after suspicious activity last weekend after a large bet was placed at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati on the LSU and Alabama game on Friday which featured the starting pitcher being scratched about an hour before first pitch. More details about that is available here.
This comes on the heel of a recent lawsuit filed by former Alabama player Johnny Blake Bennett over alleged mistreatment. You can read about the allegations by clicking here.
