National media: LSU has the best baseball fans in the entire country


LSU baseball fans: if the ball hits the top of the outfield fence, is that a home run?

---

Older posters can probably still remember that Busch Stadium II in St. Louis, as well as a few other MLB ballparks, used to have a yellow line at the top of the outfield wall that if the ball hit there it was a home run.

It seems obvious in hindsight that that was a stupid rule in the days before widespread video confirmation checking.

Those games in the Miles era were often close right down to the wire. My memory is of several games being decided late by mysterious ref calls (or non-calls).....then hearing the echoing laughter on my TV coming from Gary's chortles.

frick him!

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Are you using the app built in to your TV? They often suck.

I just set up a new LG TV last week and it worked through the built in ESPN App until yesterday.....but for the last two days for baseball and softball it has not.

This does fricking suck.

Oh. All of this time I thought he was referring to what Scrooge provided for Tiny Tim to eat on Christmas Day. :wah:

LFG!

I want more LSU football. Let's expand the regular season to 15 games!

Tigers 38 - 31.

Playing Clemson gives nothing of value to LSU.

The SEC along with the Big10 should focus on bringing under their control the other former power 5 conferences containing weaker teams. Consolidated scheduling between the SEC and Big10 should prohibit their members from playing these lesser, former 'equal' teams in the near future until this playoff team picking fiasco gets legitimized and corrected.

Congratulations to Paul Skenes for being chosen by his peers to be a member of the upcoming MLBPA union subcommittee!

His leadership and character apparently were demonstrated after not yet being in the union for a full year yet.

The vote was taken by the 30 individual team reps.

The terms is 2 years.

"The MLBPA votes on those subcommittee spots every two years. The union announced this week a new subcommittee consisting of Chris Bassitt, Jake Cronenworth, Pete Fairbanks, Cedric Mullins, Paul Skenes, Tarik Skubal, Marcus Semien and Brent Suter. Semien and Suter are the lone holdovers from the previous subcommittee.

As noted by Drellich, the subcommittee is significant because key matters are often settled with a 38-person vote. Each of the 30 teams have a representative with one vote, and the eight subcommittee members get the remaining eight votes. Those 30 team reps vote on the eight subcommittee members. The eight players selected this week will have their positions for the next two years, which aligns with the end of the current CBA, as that agreement goes until Dec. 2, 2026."

I would sure love for Taylor to come back. He and Nuss make a good match.
