That term is often stated incorrectly.
The term match does not, in any way, apply to baseball.
The proper term is Rubber GAME.

A Rubber (from the game of bridge) is a three GAME or hand series. When the GAMES or hands are tied at 1-1 the GAME or hand that will determine the series is the rubber GAME or hand.

Since LSU and Kentucky will play a baseball GAME to decide the series, they will play the Rubber GAME.
