OMAHA, Neb. — The Tigers are heating up at the perfect time.
LSU surged to a 5-1 lead over Coastal Carolina in the Men’s College World Series finals after erupting for four runs in the fourth inning. It was a momentum-shifting frame that saw the Tigers capitalize on timely hits, aggressive baserunning, and a Coastal miscue to take firm control.
Heading into the inning tied 1-1, LSU’s offense broke things open with back-to-back doubles and a clutch two-out RBI single that had the purple and gold faithful on their feet at Charles Schwab Field. Coastal Carolina had kept things close early on, but now finds itself chasing against a confident LSU squad that’s found its rhythm.
With plenty of baseball still to play, this game is far from over — but LSU has clearly made a statement. Can Coastal mount a comeback, or are the Tigers on the verge of another MCWS crown?
Thoughts, baseball fans? Who’s impressed you most so far? Should Coastal stick with their starter or make a quick move to the pen?
