6 up 6 down for Hurd, last batter after Nootch quit flied out to JT on a ball that would've likely been foul behind 1st base in shallow right.  That's the shift for you-Thompson was playing shallow RF

To the bottom of the 2nd we go.....0-0

The Vibe- B, foul, 1-1, S, 1-2, K looking, yikes, not sure what he saw there.  Flat 2 seamer heart of the plate...1 down

Belly- S, B, S, (hasn't swung yet), laced a liner to CF, hung up for the CF, 2 down

Every pitch that's been hit has been roped, but can't find grass (except for Tanks of course)

JT-B, foul off the catchers face, he's clearing cobwebs, 1-1, foul, B, 2-2, B, full count, ball 4 man on 2 down for......

Jeauxbert- B, S, DEAR LORT, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMB!!!!! 2-0 Tigers!

Dugas-Flare down RF line, JUST FOUL, 0-1, S, 0-2, B, B, 2-1, FO9 and we're done in the 2nd

Jeauxbert 109 off the bat 423' bomb, almost hit himself in the face on the scoreboard in RC!

Just the Tippet- foul 0-1, popcorn and JT snags it, 1 down

Brewer-B, B, B, missing release point on the fastball...3-0, S, S, K!
Announcers noted Hurd is using Skenes glove, Big Ben said he wear his socks if he could pitch like him

Stone-B, S, (they can't catch his 2 seamer), B, 2-1, foul 2-2, foul, FO8 and let's go bat, boys!

9 up and 9 down for Thatcher Hurd, who according to @Big T, should've been left in the portal 🙂

Bottom 3 delayed due to injury.  Catcher that ate the foul earlier off JTs bat seems concussed or something.  He took a couple shots yesterday.  They're replacing him after warm ups had already begun. 

Anyway, here comes the Tigers with the top of the order up

Crews-B, LOW strike, 1-1, B, S, B, 3-2, K....ugh

Pearson-B, ripped into RF for a base hit!  1 on 1 out

Tanks-S, lined out to RF, 2 down

Tre Tre- foul 0-1, B, foul, 1-2, B, 2-2, B, they think he walked (including the ump??), but it should be 3-2, they'll go review it...hold on, they're calling me right now, I'll let em know...OK, told em it's 3-2 and Tre is still batting...
FO 8 and we're done.  

2-0 Tigers after 3

Hurd dealing with a low pitch count so far, keep dealing son!

Petry-B, S, foul, 1-2, big bomb, Jeauxbert ALMOST snagged it but it was out of his reach, 2-1 Tigers
Left that one hanging for Petry, and he don't miss mistakes.  Dude took Skenes yard too

Lecroy-2-2 count, dude leaned in trying to get HBP, ump called BS, base hit to RF

First two hard hit balls they've had...Hurd at 65 pitches

Costas- B, B, moonshot to RF, 1 down

Just the Tippet-B, S, S, B JUST missed, 2-2, B, 4-3 groundout, good play by Dugas ranging to his left, 2 down

Brewer-B, B, S on foul tip, 2-1, B, foul 3-2, K!

Nice job by Thatcher moving on after the bomb and hard hit base hit back to back.  Weathered the storm!

Petry is a monster freshman, dudes and dudettes

Dugas-S, bunt foul, 0-2, B, Base Hit!  2 on nobody out

Changing pitchers, Proctor, side armer, sinker pitcher, lotsa Ks with only 5 walks

Showing Crews' dad in the crowd, I would NOT mess with that guy

Crews-B, BASE HIT TO LEFT!!  Based loaded for Peason!

Pearson-B, B, B, not even close yet, I'd give Pearson a big green light here, JJ...Ball 4, just missed off the outside corner, 3-1 Tigers with bases still juiced, nobody out, and.........

TANKS- B almost hit him, B, B, 3-0, I KNOW he's got the green light, Ball 4, based still loaded, 4-1, NOBODY OUT

Morgan-B, (9 in a row...), foul, 1-1, foul, B, 2-2, deep fly to LC, Crews scored and Pearson moves to 3rd, runners on corners up 5-1 with only 1 out

The Vibe-B, S, foul out in front of it,  1-2, deep fly out to CF, Pearson scores, runner on 1st with 2 down, LSU up 6-1 (I LOVE crookedness!)

Belly-foul, 0-1, B, 1-1, base hit to right field, JUST off fielder's glove, runners on corners, 2 down LSU up 6-1

JT-plunked, bases juiced

Pitching change, probably bringing in a lefty to face.....

Jeauxbert-had to go do manager stuff, Jobert got out, to the top of the 6th

I shouldn't have stepped away......we got trouble

Score is the same, but bases are loaded, 1 out, Petry up

9th pitch of at bat is a ball, it's 3-2, great stop by The Vibe...full count, walked him.  6-2, JJ bringing in a reliever and they go to commercial before I can see who it is...

Good outing by Hurd, announcers seem to think it's bad he walked Petry, but honestly certain that's not at all the worst result there lol.  Petry can rake and he was right on a few of those, one BARELY foul down LF line that probably would've scored 3. 

Dutty up, bases still loaded, 6-2 Tigers

Batter-B, B, B, S, walked him, 6-3

Changing pitchers....here we go...Ackenhausen with bases loaded, 1 out

Lefty batter Casas, B, chin music for ball 2, 2-0, S (swung at ball 3), ball no clue where it missed, 3-1, threw him a curve for a strike, full count, K looking (bad call, but a make up call...) 2 down

Just the Tippet-bounced back to Ack, and we're done.  Lucky it wasn't worse! 

6-3 Tigers headed to the bottom of the 6th

Top 7   Tigers lead 8-3
Ackenhausen still in

First batter-lazy dribbler, Morgan fields but Dugas late to cover, 1 on no outs

Stone-S, B, checked runner, 1-1, foul, 1-2, check runner, K! Stone crowds the plate then whines when they don't call strikes balls inside

Braswell-B, B, 2-0 not close, checked runner, yikes, strike about 3 inches outside lol 2-1, B same place, 3-1, S at the knees, full count, ball 4 not close, 1st and 2nd with 1 out

Wimmer- foul 0-1, S (it was clearly up and outside???...batter and dugout chirping hard for USC and I don't blame em), 0-2, ball low, K at the knees, looked like a good call but that 2nd strike was a horrible call...2 down
Guidry in the pen warming

French-S, B, 1-1, batter given time, still 1-1, Ack was using every second of the pitch clock lol, B, 2-1, B, 3-1, Vibe out to chat...next pitch fouled back, full count (good pitch), another foul, still 3-2, K!!! 

4 Ks for Ack in 1 2/3!

Tigers still lead 8-3, and we're stretching at Hoover Met

IDK what happened, runners at the corners, nobody out for.......

Crews-S, B, S, base hit to CF!  Kling scores from 2nd, 9-3 Tigers!  OK Dylan, I see you baw!

Tanks-base hit, another RBI and it's 10-3 Tigers with one out, runners on corners

Tre-S, B, B, B, 3-1, S (high), full count, foul, B4, bases loaded for the Vibe!

The Vibe-HORRIBLE CALL!!  So, there's a tapper, run about to score, they say Travinsky stepped too far inside the line on the throw to 1st, runner's interference!  On replay, his right foot hits outside the line, left foot inside the line, ALL THE WAY TO FIRST!

AND THEY CONFIRM THE CALL???????  Inning over??

LSU leads 10-3
