So it didn’t quite go as smoothly as fans of the LSU Tigers baseball team would have hoped in the Regionals, but it worked out in the end and the team is two wins away from Omaha and the College World Series. How will they fare in the Super Regionals against West Virginia, and what are the keys to victory?
LSU beat writer for The Times-Picayune and The Advocate, Koki Riley, joins host Jim Derry on Wednesday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 382) presented by Evangeline Securities, as they also rehash Monday’s victory over Little Rock.
Jim also talks to Loyola second baseman Brandon Mooney, who might have been the best college baseball player no one heard of this season. Oh, and the Wolf Pack’s – and his – underdog story is well worth the listen. In Jim’s unofficial ‘Last Word,’ he celebrates a very special 40th anniversary for Saints fans.
