I really wish they would have shown the replay. Would be nice if someone took a video of it at the game.

Arkansas radio guys complained about Jeff Head for at least 3 innings straight.

Pearson did his job by working the count multiple times. They clearly had a plan to drive up pitch count. Might result in more Ks, but they also got the pitchers out. He also had an RBI in this game when only 4 total runs were scored.

If it works and LSU is winning I truly don't see any reason to complain or even question it.

Because jay figured pearson would handle the lefty better, despite his 4 years of data to prove that pearson, while adequate against lefties, still shouldnt be hitting at the top of the lineup. Big brained it


What good would it have done to lead Curiel off in this game if the 2 guys behind him combined to go 0-8.

Personally, I'd like to see Jones batting around 5th and Milam maybe 3rd with Curiel leading off. However, against really good left handed pitching I don't mind him down in the lineup. He can be the leadoff hitter of the middle of the order. :nana: :nana: He hit a clutch homer in that spot against West Virgiia.

I don't question things that end up working. There can be a lot of reasons that go into it. We'll never know how he would have done leading off in this game, but we do know he was productive where he was. It was nice because he was in a position to drive in runs.

Curiel had a hit and two walks whle masterfully working the count in the process.


Isn't that a good thing? Sounds like it paid off.

I like when Curiel is productive down in the lineup when they face a very good lefty starter.

Frey and Jones combined to go 0-8. What good would if have done if he was doing that ahead of those 2? Also, Pearson was O-fer, but he worked the count well as well and he had an RBI. Pearson had a really great 10 pitch AB.

Arkansas Radio guys were going on and on complaining about the ump.I have never heard radio guys complain an ump throughout multiple innings.

Arkansas radio guys were complaining about the umpire a lot. I think one might be a former player.

And I mean a lot. Even before the time on my link. They basically said they were getting screwed and batters had nothing they could do about it. Even in the 9th they said the ump was terrible.

I think they complained about him for at least 3 innings I listened to.

Pearson also had an out which took 10 pitches.


Made that pitcher work. Good AB.

I can’t believe there is still some mfers here who question Jay


Agree. Even if it's not what I would do I still recognize he has his reasons and knows what he is doing. I'm not questioning it. I would have kept Shores in, but I'm glad LSU was in position to close it out with their closer. He didn't mess around. He has a day off now and nobody is burned. Winning these first games are important.

This is a pro typical setup-close move


That's exactly what I thought. Elite setup man to elite closer. It kind of reminded me of previous teams.

I thnk the day off helps too. Let Evans close out your important games if he needs to. Don't mess around.

We'll never know that, but nobody is burned.

The day off helps too.

They weren't messing around. Make sure you win.

I wanted to keep Shores, but I am happy our closer got the save.

that guy only has 5 homers in his career and this is only his 15th start?

re: LSU 4 @ Arkansas 1 Final

Still a great job by Pearson to make him work. I do wonder when Brown will come in the game now.
Every game this is the case. Ben even goes above and beyond to give them their due.

That's fine as long as we win.

I'm sure there are more than willing people who have no issue helping another Tiger fan with a question they might know the answer to.

You are right though. Google did show the result right away. I just googled what is Daniel Curiel's walk up song.

I still trust LSU fans over most player questions.

It's absolute trash. Also, my firesticks have always ended up breaking at some point. My rokus have never. I actually buy mostly roku built in tvs though.
