LSU Baseball Star Gave Umpire Two-Word Message While Refusing To Have Walk-Off Moment Ruined
The LSU Tigers took two of three games from SEC rival Tennessee in what was a highly contested college baseball set. On Friday night, the home team provided fireworks in the form of a walk-off home run.
LSU trailed 3-0 heading into the ninth inning following a lengthy rain delay. Those that stayed in Alex Box Stadium to watch the final at-bat left happy.
The Tigers scored six runs in the bottom of the frame to leave with a Game 1 victory. First baseman Jared Jones was the hero after launching the game-winning home run.
Jones turned on a 1-2 pitch from Tennessee pitcher Nate Snead, sending it sailing over the batter’s eye in centerfield. It was an absolute no-doubter, and Jones knew it.
He admired the moonshot, taking his time to watch it travel deep into the abyss before making his way to first base. Video of that celebratory stroll surfaced a few days after the homer.
