Lange is the better pitcher. Still does not mean it was the wrong move to start Poche.


7/8 teams pitched their ace game one.

guess which coach didn't?

Would it have been a good decision had we won the game?

7/8 teams don't have the same pitching staff as LSU. What's your point? It made sense for LSU to pitch Poche. Most teams have a clear ace (i.e., they wouldn't even think about throwing their number 2), and most other teams were not facing a situation where the team they were going against had 7 lefties in the starting lineup when their number 2 guy was left handed. This isn't even getting to the point that Poche can pitch on short rest and Lange can't. You might not agree with it, and you would have valid points, but it certainly wasn't a "no brainer" to start Lange in game 1.
