This latest Natty was one of the most rewarding I can remember…..

Since mid February, I never missed a game. I’ll be honest, I can’t say that that has been the case with every baseball team we’ve had. But this team was so special, I couldn’t keep my eyes off of them. In January, our daughter had a very serious surgery that has been a really tough recovery. She is finally doing so much better. I want this baseball team to know how much it meant to us and what a great distraction it was from our crazy reality. I don’t know how many hours we put into watching this baseball team, but it was a lot! So to put in that type of time in to see that type of reward has been extremely gratifying. I can’t imagine what it feels like for them! Thanks Coach Jay and Company for one of the funnest rides I’ve been on as a fan. Damn it’s great to be a Tiger

I agree with you. This team was special to watch.
By the way (not to hijack the thread)... Isn't your daughter, Katie? I remember you asking us to pray for her a while back. How's she doing?

Very glad to hear your daughter is recovering well. Prayers for continued healing.
As for this team, it's truly the first time I didn't miss a single game. Whether in person or on TV. I don't know what it was about them, but it seems like more people felt connected to the players. Whether it was the way they played, the amount of air time, or what. But this team was special from the start.
I think this feeling of being connected to the team is going to be the new norm for LSU sports in general. It seems like there's an active push by Woodward and Tate to make the fanbase feel like they're a part of each team. The alignment is fricking solid!

Each and every one has been special to me...

Think I may have missed a midweek or two, and certainly didn’t go through the personal trials y'all did, but in late April/early May my wife lashed out with “baseball again?!”
I explained to her this team had a 2019 football feel, and there was something different about them. She watched every bit of the post season with me, and had our dog in “lucky” LSU collars and bandanas. This team overcame it ALL, and I mean all…they even won her over by the end

Congratulations on your daughter’s recovery and prayers for her going forward.
The season was amazing. Everything about that team was special, especially how the bullpen came alive in the postseason.

It was the most fun three weeks of LSU fandom in my life. It was just awesome. It is like we won it twice, once to get to the finals and then the finals. And legendary, legendary players and plays. Absolutely the best.

This was honestly some of the most fun I have had watching baseball in a long time. There are just so many good storylines on top of excellent players.
Ty Floyd's 17 strikeout performance against Florida game 1.
Morgan's defensive play in the 8th inning against Wake Forest.
Crews being Crews all year
White being unreal at the plate with Crews on Base. His walkoff HR against Wake
Skenes dominance all year.
The list goes on but just such a fun year.

I've watched every single tournament for all the title winning teams, and this year's run was by far the best and most impressive.

The crowd chanting for Thompson is something I'll remember for a long, long time. I admit, I was down on him, but he proved me wrong.

It’s how they got there. Two classic wins over no. 1 wake that could have easily gone either way. A one run victory over Florida that was in doubt until the end. Coming back from getting routed to route the same team. Think about it, we lose either of the Wake games or the Florida one run game and we go home. Destiny.

Coming out of a game 2 loss in Omaha to win it all is something I still can't believe.
So many pitchers had multiple career games in Omaha in must-win games. It's amazing.

I still have not jumped off Cloud 9! I remember everyone was just thinking about making it to Omaha this year, that was the goal. After that little funk during the last few weekends before the SEC tournament, we had concerns, but the way this team responded was amazing!! Our pitching suddenly became a strength, hitting consistent as well! Just a fantastic ride I will continue to enjoy!

I too watched more baseball games this year than ever. I think I only missed two the entire year. Once we got to know all the players, it was really special to watch them perform.
So many good memories.
