LSU Baseball Accomplishes Something That Only The St. Louis Cardinals Have Done at the Maj

LINK

The LSU Tigers won the national championship on Monday night by defeating the University of Florida at the College World Series in Omaha.

LSU dominated the game, winning the deciding game three by a score of 18-4. It capped off a great season athletically for the Tigers, who also won the Women's Basketball national championship after defeating Iowa.

As great as 18 runs were, the blowout could have been worse. LSU stranded 18 base runners in the game as well.

With that unique statline, the Tigers did something that only one other team in Major League Baseball history has done:

Per Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press on Twitter:

LSU scored 18 runs and stranded 18 runners tonight. Absurd. Happened once in an MLB game. In 1944. Stan Musial and the Cardinals did it to Cincinnati.
This hasn't happened in a major league game in nearly 80 years. That really is amazing. What's also amazing from LSU's perspective is that they are very likely to have the top two picks in the draft at the Major League draft next month.
Outfielder Dylan Crews and pitcher Paul Skenes could be the top two picks, in either order.

The Pittsburgh Pirates have the top pick in the draft while the Washington Nationals have No. 2. The Detroit Tigers pick third, followed by the Texas Rangers, the Minnesota Twins, the Oakland Athletics, Cincinnati Reds, Kansas City Royals, Colorado Rockies and Miami Marlins.

That's the top 10.

For LSU, that was the seventh national championship for the program.
