Jake Brown leads the way again

Where would LSU be without Jake Brown? The answer to that is, the Tigers might be in a worse spot than they already are to start the season. Brown currently leads the team with a .422 batting average. Vandy tried to fight back on multiple occasions today, but Brown answered with runs of his own to keep the lead.

I can't trust the bullpen

It does not matter how large the LSU lead is; we have not reached a point where I can trust that the bullpen will hold the lead. I just feel like at some point the dam is going to break and the other team is going to score four or more runs in one inning. LSU held a 6-1 lead that was wiped out in two innings. Then, when the Tigers had a five-run inning to take the lead back, the Commodores answered with three runs of their own to keep it close.

Great day for Stanfield

Chris Stanfield had a great day at the plate. He finished the game 2-for-4 with an RBI. He provided production at the bottom of the lineup that helped manufacture more runs at the top of the lineup.
