if we hit like we did against uncw we won't win

We talking about the first game or the 2nd game against them?

Because if LSU hits 16 balls at or over 100mph, they should definitely win that game.

Fortunate to slip by Houston after being no-hit?


Uh, yeah.

You scored and an error in the 9th...and then won it on a HBP.

That's pretty much the definition of lucky.


Uh, no.

We did not score on an error.

Clement put down a beautiful squeeze bunt with Butler sliding in safely at home to tie the game. We put pressure on them, and they broke. Call it what you will, but we made our own luck.

I've said it in another thread and I'll say it again, we gave ourselves a chance to win in the end because we played great defense and pitched great after that solo bomb in the 1st inning. Keeping it a 1-0 game till the end is just as important to us winning as getting HBP in the last at bat.

Baseball is a 9-inning game. 1 HBP did not determine the whole game.

Normally ULL is a strong matchup for us but not this year. LSU has a 800 lb gorilla with a chainsaw penis slinging the rock this year

Cajun8, I applaud you for trying to be rational in this shitstorm. Somehow going 3-0 against the #13th and #19th ranked teams in the country is complete luck, while not being able to score more than two runs against the mighty UNCW Seahawks is some amazing accomplishment that should have Cajun fans shaking in their boots. Is LSU the better team on paper? Sure. But that doesn't always mean you will win, as LSU fans should know with what happened to them with Houston and Stony Brook.

Stonybrook was actually the better team, and most fans who follow LSU baseball will tell you this . They had more high draft picks than just about any other team in the country

ULaLa definitely has a chance. That is the wonderful thing about baseball. If both teams are playing their game LSU is the superior. But that doesn't always happen.

Should be a great series.

Said no one in this thread. ULL was fortunate to get some timely breaks over the weekend. They took advantage and won.

Lange and Poche pitched some gems against a better hitting club than ULL. If you saw those game threads, you'd know people weren't encouraged by our hitting, especially with RISP.

Like I said earlier, Cajun fans get so defensive about nothing.

Exactly.

Yeah, I don't really know much about Lange or Poche but I can't imagine they are that much better. Rice's Fox has a career record of 26-2 and Houston's Romero has one of the lowest ERA's in the country.

We should win this with ease. I'll be shocked if we don't come away with the series win.

...after a walk and an error.

When you score the tying run based on a walk and an error, you should recognize the good fortune.

When you score the winning run on a HBP after a swinging bunt, you should recognize the good fortune.

Agreed. I think this will be a hard fought and close series.
