Don’t take a pitcher out that is rolling in postseason game.

First 2 pitchers should have kept throwing

Sucks for them

Geaux Tigers!

their starter was done rolling. If ump doesn't blow the 3-2 call vs Braswell he wouldve walked 3 of the last 4 batters he faced.

Wofford played a great game. Milam’s haircut was the difference.

The starter was done and the first relief was hanging on by a thread.

Yeah.... taking out that left hander was overthinking and over coaching it.

If they make it to Omaha, Jay needs to get his hair done like monsters.

Their starter was in trouble and got bailed out by an awful strike call. Their coach got him out at the perfect time.

Ump absolutely loved Wofford’s starter. Gave him anything that was even close. Then we have to swing at the ball next time he throws it because we know blue will call it a strike.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say their coach knows his pitcher better than you do.

Much respect for Wofford. They didn’t play scared. Deserving of a 3 seed. Hope they win their next game

The starter had to be pulled. Anyone could see that. If they would have left him in LSU would have had a big inning.

Don’t protest home runs being petty. That angers the baseball gods.

Don't criticize a HC, from a small college like Wofford, who takes last years Champion to the wire before losing. His team played great and executed error free. Just didn't have the depth required to compete vs SEC Champions.

Their first pitcher was definitely gassed. The second guy gave up Milam’s first HR.

Mix in some horrendous calls of balls and strikes and, in the end, I don’t think it mattered.

Wofford didn’t do anything wrong. They just don’t have the horses.

I'd probably gone to one of my aces after the starter, but obviously I'm happy with woffords decision.

Yeah, I don't exactly believe in pulling a guy just because it's his third time around the lineup.

His pitch count was getting up though. I think he had at least an inning or two left though.
