re: Although Ump was terrible...it was smart baseball by tigers.

Gilbert took advantage.

But that's only half of it.

LSU lineup was swinging at anything that was to the outside or tailing that way. Laid off anything inside (except for Smith, who somehow shortens his arms by 9").

That wide of a zone and an ump that has a fish eye lens for his glass eye, you better not go up there thinking you're gonna sit with the bat on your shoulders and let the pitcher work himself into a jam.

LSU adjusted on the hitting side. That's why you didn't see a lot of bitching from them.
