It wasn’t the prettiest game, but the LSU baseball team (15-5, 1-2) managed to avoid getting swept in the opening SEC series, rallying to beat Texas A&M 7-6 on Sunday.
Texas A&M jumped on LSU from the start scoring two runs in the first and a third in the top half of the fourth inning. LSU would respond in the fourth by getting a pair of runs back to make it a 3-2 game.
Then disaster seemed to strike in the fifth when LSU surrendered three runs turning a tightly contested 3-2 game into a 6-2 deficit with a sweep staring down the Tigers.
