re: Game 1: Texas A&M 2, LSU 1 - Final

nice AB Laird

Jacoby just missed that one. Laird is absolute shite at the plate.

This team is 46-5 and you just now start watching. You could say that for all of our outfielders

I've been watching all year, it just baffles me that every throw that has come in from Laird in right has hit turf before it has found leather. haven't seen much of that from center or left during the season...just a late and no doubt previously stated observation.

Good catch

Good job Laird and Stevenson, pitcher up in the 90s in pitches and you got 2 outs in 3 pitches

Well that was an awful sequence of at bats.

I have to leave for work at 5:45 tomorrow morning think I got to go to bed

Either Laird or Stevenson need to be out of this lineup, make room for a Foster/Moore platoon. Can't have 2 auto outs in the lineup
