Rank the LSU CWS Walk-off wins....

Crease #2 based on situation

1987 semifinals Stanford wins on a grand slam off Ben McDonald.

The rant would have called for Ben’s head if the internet was around.

It’s weird saying this because the morris homer is so memorable and well known and was for the actual championship

But I think the Tommy tanks one was my favorite. When morris hit his, the LSU baseball machine was rolling and we had 2 recent titles. But Tommy’s home run was on the heels of a 13 year drought, our longest since LSU baseball became LSU baseball. Our intimidator was getting less intimidating, the rest of the SEC was catching up to us. That hit feels like it might have ushered in the 2 great era of LSU baseball

Jesus. Glad I wasn’t born to see that Grand Slam walk off off of Big Ben

It was bizarre as frick. 3-run lead bottom 10, 2 out, none on. Stanford loads the bases, but you feel like Big Ben is going to get out of it. Even while watching it, grand slam was the LAST thought on my mind.

Then the lefty Paul Carey hits what looks like a pop fly to left and the wind just kept pushing and pushing and it clears the fence. It was very shocking.

What made it worse was that LSU would have needed only 2 more wins to win the championship and they had their pitching set up to do it. Greg Patterson was due to pitch next and he had been unhittable most of the year.

Trivia: Ben and Carey were teammates briefly with the Orioles in 1993

I mean…. It was pretty important. Beating Arky twice in a row in a playoff setting would be a tough feat. Plus the rest it gives us going into the finals. I’d say it was pretty damn important.

True, but that Miami baseball team reeked of arrogance that made the current Tennessee Vols seem like a bunch of humble monks.
The Morris home run was sweet on many levels

1. Morris





2. Tommy Tanks

3. Cresse




4. Jones




5. Walker


I get the Jones’ walk off happened last night and it’s on everyone’s mind. But I can’t put it higher


Tanks gets the nod over Cresse even thought Cresse’s hit was in a title game because that LSU Wake game is maybe the most intense nail biting baseball game I’ve ever watched. Flawless pitching from the 2 starters, Morgan’s play on the squeeze then capped off with the walk off homer.

Wasn't Cresse struggling pretty bad at the plate when he hit that championship winner?
