I'd gladly pay for an LSU Baseball subscription service that airs all former LSU athletes' games in the minors. Add all of our current players' summer league games and they'd make a fortune

I see the ump came and checked his hands after the inning lol. Those pitches were not like the others he’s been seeing.

MILB TV is reasonably priced, but no one airs complex league games.

Our fans watching low level pro ball for the first time will come to appreciate just how great the ball in the SEC actually is....and the reason our guys went 1 and 2

Imagine going from playing night in night out in front of 10k people.. to pitching in front of 20k people in Omaha.

Most baseball players are used to that, in fact Skenes is probably to from his Air Force Days.

I can recall on Ian Happs podcast them talking about the Covid no crowd to then small crowd was not that unusual for them other than the parks being big. All were used to playing in front of very small crowds most of their lives including the vast majority of college players.

I like the way the umpire fist bumped him after the substance check.

edit - too late, he only pitched one inning


You do know you can rewind live broadcasts, right?

Skenes is onscreen from the 3:00 mark to the 11:00 mark. (National anthem, warm-up, inning pitched).

Thanks for the link.

You get MiLB TV free with MLB.TV subscription which isn't insanely priced. If you happen to have any T-mobile devices, you get MLB.tv year pass for free

Lol at the second video and the bump checking Paul’s hands for a foreign substance. Ump was thinking no way a rookie pitches like this normally.
