Omar Serna hit a two-run home run on Sunday and is hitting .400 over the last four games. Jay Johnson has no intention of removing him from LSU’s lineup.
LSU can’t seem to put all the phases together. The pitching staff stepped up over the weekend, but the offense and defense fell flat as Oklahoma won the final two games.
Cooper Moore has pitched to a 3.38 ERA this season and struck out 39 batters with just seven walks. He’ll now miss some time, but it appears LSU avoided the worst-case scenario.
Cooper Moore’s availability is in doubt after he was removed from Friday’s game against Oklahoma. If the veteran right-hander is not available, who could step up?
Casan Evans used a week of preparation to rebound from a poor out in the SEC opener at Vanderbilt. Thursday night’s 15-strikeout effort was his best as a Tiger.
The Tiger ace struck out a career-high 15, and Oklahoma’s pitching and defense imploded early to paved the way for a convincing series-opening victory for LSU.
