Paul Mainieri says he got 'a little bit greedy' sending Russell Reynolds out for 4th inning

OMAHA, Neb. - LSU started Russell Reynolds in Monday night's 4-3 loss to Florida to open the College World Series and he started off as good as anyone could have hoped.

Despite allowing two hits in the first three innings, Reynolds still faced the minimum thanks to catcher Michael Papierski throwing out a pair of runners to end the first and third innings.

Reynolds' longest outing of the year had been 3.0 innings against TCU on March 3 and he crossed that mark with the first batter of the fourth inning grounding out to first baseman Jake Slaughter who flipped it to Reynolds for the out.
