Tiger bats explode, Jaguar errors costly in the 7th

5/29/09 4:03 PM

DJ LeMahieu's RBI single into centerfield gave LSU their first lead of the game.

And just like that, a flood gate of base hits, runs and costly errors altered the momentum of the game.

Chase Richard final line: 6.23 inning, 7 hits, 3 runs (2 earned), 1 BB.

For the LSU in the seventh:

7 runs, 6 hits, 2 errors, 0 LOB

Weather forces Jaguars hand

5/29/09 3:54 PM

Romey Bracey just ran in to replace James Armstrong at left field. Stevenson had to be stretched out by head trainer Alex Hawkins.

After a 5-minute delay and several cups of water, Armstrong trotted off the field.

Ross' day at the Box done.

5/29/09 3:42 PM

Austin Ross' outing at the 2009 NCAA Baton Rouge Regional is done.

The 6-2, Shreveport native recorded 10 Ks, tying his career high.

Ross' line: 6.23 innings, 7 hits, 2 run (both earned) and 10 Ks.

Sidebar: Since crushing a two-run homer in the first, Victor Franklin is 0-for-3, all strikeouts.

Errant throw cost Jaguars one run, Chase gets out of a jam.

5/29/09 3:29 PM

With one bad throw by catcher Michael Thomas, LSU's Ryan Schimpf stolen base turn into the Tigers first run of the game.

Richard and the Jaguars bounced back and got out of the inning with a double play turned by 2B Ozzie Lamis.

Coming into the top of the seventh, the Jaguars can no longer afford to strand runners and haphazardly hack away at the plate.

Manufactoring runs is the name of the game at this pivotal juncture.

Line score after six innings.
