While our fanbase isnt the smartest, LSU had great pitching and defense last year. I dont have a huge problem with the bats but the CWS hasn't been fun to watch the last couple of years. Imo its more of a ballpark problem than a bat problem because baseball at the box is still fun to watch.

Haha..I was mostly responding to the knock against my Titans. I do agree to a point, but using HRs as a metric may not be the best nor is using "fun".

My take is that IF a pitcher hangs a curve then hit a line drive somewhere and don't swing for the fences. The ballpark is a known, so perhaps changing your approach at the plate would be a good idea.

Fullerton has some great pitching this year and I hope we make it to the CWS and use the park to our advantage.

I dont mind low scoring ballgames but i watched pitchers who werent great, dominate in Omaha.

Also, your Titans will be scary good this year. Looking forward to the season

When UCLA's strategy was to throw belt high fastballs, the game is broken.

I made this same suggestion on the rant during and after the UCLA game and got blasted for it for about 10 pages. Evidently rant logic says that flattening your swing, being patient, and taking a few pitches is just flat out too hard that late in the season. The singluar sole problem with LSU's offense in the CWS was the bats, the balls, and the park according to the rant.
