Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Jack Sammarco
A new face to the program this season, Jack Sammarco is a name to watch for in the Alabama Crimson Tide's tight end room this fall. Coming to Alabama via the NCAA transfer portal, Sammarco wasn't necessarily the highest-rated recruit coming out of high school, but did end up seeing a notable amount of action a year ago as a true freshman at West Virginia. Also committing to Alabama during the spring portal window, how much could Sammarco now play during year one in Tuscaloosa? Here is a preview of the 2025 season for new Alabama tight end Jack Sammarco. Jack Sammarco player information Positon: Tight End Jersey Number: No. 85 Height: 6'5 Weight: 252 Class: Sophomore Hometown: Cincinnati, Ohio High School: Anderson Jack Sammarco career stats Sammarco is entering his second season of college football this fall, the first of which was spent playing in the Big 12 at West Virginia. During his lone season with the Mountaineers, Sammarco appeared in 13 games where he had one reception for four yards, while also returning a kickoff for five yards. Jack Sammarco 2024 stats As mentioned previously, Sammarco's 2024 season was his first in college football, appearing in 13 games while at West Virginia. Sammarco hauled in a reception for four yards, while also returning a kick for five yards, a year ago. Jack Sammarco recruiting ranking Prior to attending West Virginia, Sammarco was considered as the nation's No. 1,475 overall prospect in the 2024 class, as well as the No. 74 tight end nationally, per the 247Sports Composite recruiting rankings. A three-star prospect, Sammarco was also considered the No. 61 overall prospect in the state of Ohio where he attended Anderson High School. This past offseason, Sammarco was considered as the No. 893 overall player in the transfer portal, per 247Sports, as well as the No. 47 tight end. Rated as a three-star transfer, Sammarco committed to Alabama in April 2025. Jack Sammarco 2025 season outlook Due to the depth in Alabama's tight end room, it is likely an unknown as to how much action Sammarco could see in 2025. An offseason transfer addition, Sammarco likely enters the 2025 campaign as a depth option due to the presence of Josh Cuevas and Danny Lewis Jr., but is still a backup who could see action. In fact, Sammarco's past experience at West Virginia could play a role, as compared to some of Alabama's other top backups, the Big 12 transfer is the lone player who has seen noteworthy action at the power four level. Overall, expect Sammarco to see time for Alabama in 2025, but for the West Virginia transfer to likely not start this fall, and to end up potentially being a key rotation option.

Marte hits 3 doubles and Martinez pitches Reds past Pirates 2-1 to stop 3-game skid
Nick Martinez pitched seven sharp innings and Noelvi Marte doubled three times as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-1 on Saturday night to snap a three-game slide. Marte drove in one run and scored another. Martinez (10-9) permitted a run on four hits and two walks while striking out four. Emilio Pagán earned his 25th save. He gave up a leadoff walk in the ninth but shortstop Elly De La Cruz converted a line drive into a game-ending double play. Marte knocked in Spencer Steer from first base with a double in the fourth to tie it 1-all. Marte doubled again in the seventh and scored on TJ Friedl's sacrifice fly. He added his third double in the ninth to set a career high. Pittsburgh took a 1-0 lead in the third when Jared Triolo doubled and scored on Tommy Pham's sacrifice fly. Spencer Horwitz had two of the Pirates' four hits. Carmen Mlodzinski (2-7), the second of five pitchers in a bullpen game, took the loss. Marte's first double was just fair and it rolled into the left-field corner before Pham could corral the ball, enabling Steer to score from first. The Reds have scored two runs or fewer in 40 games this season, including each of their last four. The four-game series concludes Sunday with Reds RHP Zack Littell (9-8, 3.46 ERA) pitching against RHP Mike Burrows (1-4, 4.45). ___ AP MLB:
