I just read the entire article you used to criticize Mainieri. You cherry picked the parts out of context to fit your agenda.
So Milazzo did as he was coached and the results of his swing would be a base hit.
So Mainieri wanted to publicly praise Milazzo, obviously wanting to drive his coaching point home to all the other players standing around the batting cage.
And YOU want to believe that was desperation on Mainieri's part? You are even worse than I first thought.
quote:
As catcher Alex Milazzo took batting practice Thursday afternoon, coach Paul Mainieri stepped into the cage, pausing the session.
Mainieri stood across from Milazzo. He grabbed the freshman’s bat and told him to keep his hands in front of the barrel through his swing. LSU had set the pitching machine to spit out breaking balls.
“That way you can hit the ball to the opposite field and you're not rolling over to shortstop on 0-2 pitches,” Milazzo said later.
When he finished coaching, Mainieri walked out of the batting cage. The session resumed, and on the final pitch, Milazzo cracked a line drive through the middle of the field. Standing behind the cage, Mainieri raised his arms.
“Ahhhh,” Mainieri yelled. “Hey, buddy!”
Milazzo walked away from home plate as the next player stepped inside the cage. When he reached Mainieri, the coach hugged him.
The past four days, LSU has re-emphasized its offensive approach, trying to fix issues that have threatened its season.
