The bullpens came in. Looks like LSU is not the only one that has struggled to close out games.

OR.... Elite starters are hard to score off of.

Or….UVA left their closer sitting in pen while the other guy was serving up taters.

UVA doesn’t have the arms. You saw their best.

Agreed. I thought the very same thing.

That's like saying the better team doesn't pull away late in basketball games. It's a tale as old as baseball

I haven't watched a single inning of Virginia baseball and I knew that the lefty needed to be pulled after he gave up the first base runner after the homer.

How did he miss the point? Instead of being a douche, explain?

Good starters, poor bullpens? He basically said the starters have been elite so far. More than an LSU problem? Use your words if you don’t mind.

The back end of the regular season LSU’s bullpen gave up runs, along with the bats being cold causing them to lose some games that we were winning earlier in the season. Fast forward to the CWS and our ERA is one of the worst of the tourney but some of these teams have not faced the competition LSU has and you are already starting to see their bullpen falter.
My other point is Skenes doesn’t mean automatic win, so far all the starters are holding it down until the 6 or 7th.

I think O’Connor was trying to be too smart and save his closer for later in the week. Should’ve yanked his guy after the second bomb in two innings though.

It was unbelievable. Rant would have shorted out if we’d done that.
