Stop me when you’ve heard this before: LSU’s big Friday night game got delayed by weather.
LSU and Little Rock eventually did get going Friday night, about five hours later than expected, with first pitch coming around 7:36 local time. Daniel Dickinson made sure to reward the patience of the Alex Box Stadium crowd, by homering twice and leading the Tigers to a 6-0 win in the the opening game of the Baton Rouge Regional.
After much theorizing and wondering if Kade Anderson, Anthony Eyanson, or someone else would get the start against a clearly overmatched Trojan team, Jay Johnson decided to hand the ball to Eyanson.
