The other factor that makes it seem like stranding baserunners happens more than other teams is because it does. The number of times is high because of high number of baserunners but the percentage of times runners are stranded is one of the lowest in the SEC.
LSU leads the league in 2 out RBI in SEC games and it is not really close.
But this is baseball and 3 for 20 can happen in any given game.
Just need to be on the other side of their average to get to Omaha.

They do need to get better at hitting with RISP than they have the last couple of weeks but show me a team that doesn’t leave a lot of runners on base and I will show you a bad hitting team.
LSU leaves a lot of people on base because they get a lot of people on base. In the SC game in Hoover, for example, they left the base loaded one inning after they already scored multiple runs. That’s not a bad thing.

Wow you watched more than 1 game where they struggled to hit with RISP in a 50+ baseball game season. Tell me more. 
You're not going to find a team in the country even the best bats in the country do anything but have many games where they struggle with RISP. Shut up seriously.

I have watched more than 1 game this year against elite opponents where this hit with RISP and won.

How much of this is where people are batting in the lineup?

I dont love our current li rip.
I get Crews leading off because he was in a slump , and he did hit better this weekend,
but i’d rather him with some more RISP opportunities and i’d rather him right in front of tommy so if he gets on base Tommy can try and score him.

Dude keeps throwing facts and y’all keep
Changing your issue.
1st it was RISP and now it’s not scoring with a runner on 3rd and 1 out?? Again your talking about last game without Tommy white in the lineup too. Lost both games by 1 run.
Relax we don’t have to face an SEC team most likely until Supers or Omaha so I feel a lot better about our chances against other conferences. SEC is just a different breed of talent

It’s not a guess. It’s a fact we’re one of the top hitting teams with RISP. It doesn’t matter what your eyes choose to believe. If we’re bad at it than so is the rest of the country.

LSU has 126 men left on base in their last 12 sec games. It’s been a lot more than one game.

The blow out games skew the numbers. That’s the issue.
Tell these idiots that though as they ALWAYS revert to averages.
They have a 12-8 their last 20 games including dropping a series at home to MSU and losing a mid-week game to Nichols. That’s the reality.
If I’m the committee, I’m looking at the last 20 just like they are supposed to with how they finished.

Would help to have the nation's best RBI producer in the lineup.

I mean it is baseball. You don't think other top teams struggle at times to score runs with runners on?

You went right back to one specific game. Perhaps they were trying things out. Perhaps it was more about getting the hitter a bunt attempt. They didn't play to lose, but if they really needed to win that game they would have extended pitching and played Tommy White. They would not have had two struggling Freshmen in the lineup. It was a game to try things out. I still don't understand why anyone is upset about the tournament.
LSU did what they needed to do these last two weeks to secure the national seed and stay healthy.

Also, I think I'd take a team that gets a ton of runners on base over one that does not. Eventually, they have to come through. They are still top of the league in hitting and scoring. I can't imagine the melt if they weren't.
It's wild to me A&M and Arkansas only beat LSU by one given the melt around here. Hitting is still the least of my concerns. I need the pitching to keep it up and throw strikes.

Since moving to lead off Crews has batted plenty with runners on base.

No, it’s been the case over the past 2-3 weeks

They have been scoring run the last 2-3 weeks. You just remember the runners left on. If they score 8 and still lose all you remember are the runs left on the table not the 8 scored
