LSU baseball earned its biggest series win of the year, taking two of three from Tennessee over the weekend. LSU won game one in thrilling walk-off fashion before dropping game two. On Sunday, LSU run-ruled the Vols to take the series.
LSU needed this. The Tigers have their sights set on a top-eight seed in the NCAA Tournament. The top eight seeds get to host a Super Regional, and for LSU, home-field advantage matters.
In recent weeks, LSU was swept by Auburn and dropped a midweek contest to Northwestern State. Both were hits to the resume, but after the Tennessee series, LSU is moving in the right direction.
