In the final game against Texas in the CWS, Texas evened the score in the bottom of the 5th at 4-4. The Tigers answered right away by scoring five runs in the top of the 6th, taking back both the momentum and the game. Now answer the following questions about that 6th inning:
(NO LOOKING UP THE ANSWERS! THIS IS NOT OPEN BOOK!)

1. How many batters had plate appearances for LSU in the 6th?

2. How many hits did LSU get, and who got them?

3. How many Tigers got on by a) BBs and by 2) HBPs?

4. Who led off, and what was significant about what occurred?

5. Who got the final out of the inning and what occurred?

1) 10
2) I think 4 (Mahtook- 2B, Gibbs- 1B, Lemaihu- 1B, Ochinko- 1B)
3) a- 1 (Mitchell), b) 2 (Schimpf, Dean)
4) Mitchell walked- not sure, did he break the single season LSU SB record when he stole second?
5) Mitchell, pop/line out to SS

Interesting responses. I will take all the posts that didn't respond to the questions as "I don't knows", which is absolutely ok. This includes the ranter who responded with that old standby default word "Germans". (If you can show me where these same questions were asked before here, I'll cop to it.)

I like to scorekeep the games and tend to remember details. It's no big deal that not everyone does.

As for the Army fan who is so tired of talking about LSU's Championship, all I have to say is that he can turn it sideways and put it where the sun don't shine. It appears he is more interested in big breasts than LSU Sports anyway. And by the way, if you have no interest, don't read the post. As far as I am aware you don't own the Rant. Nor is it your job to dictate what goes on it.

The answers are as follows:
1. Ten Tigers had plate appearances in the 6th.

2.There were only two hits in the inning. Mahtook got an RBI double to L-CF and and Ochinko got 2 RBIs on a single to LF.
(The other two RBIs that inning came from a Sac Fly to RF by Helenihi and by Dean when he was HBP with the bases loaded.)

3. Two Tigers walked (Mitchell and LeMahieu) and two Tigers were HBPs (Landry and Dean - back-to-back)

4. Mitchell led off with an eight pitch walk. It was notable that he walked after getting an 0-2 count. (Ochinko said that Mitchell's determination in fighting back to get that walk essentially changed the momentum of the game.)

5. Mitchell, who batted first and walked, also got the final out with a line drive to short.

One other interesting note was that it was likely the first time all season that LSU had two sacrifices in one inning (also back-to-back!). We usually don't have that many in one game. In addition to Helenihi's Sac Fly, Gibbs was credited with a Sacrifice when he bunted with Mahtook on 2nd. Gibbs was safe at 1st on a throwing error by Dicharry, but still gets credit for the Sac Bunt and not the error.

Congrats, Emmanuel! You did pretty good from a memory exercise standpoint.

Not that there is anything wrong with big breasts, is there?

Not to me; but don't quibble with me about talking baseball on the Rant, if that's all you're interested in.

Mitchell began and ended if i remember correctly.. so even though there were ten at bats, wouldnt it be just nine tigers

The walking Mitchell batted first. The lining out Mitchell batted last.
