5 takeaways from LSU’s series loss to Mississippi State

LSU is on the verge of losing a chance to host a super regional after dropping back-to-back SEC series.

LSU has a problem.

Other than [autotag]Paul Skenes[/autotag], its pitching has been abysmal. The Tigers have dropped two straight SEC series. They blew a 13-4 lead to the second-worst team in the SEC last Sunday at home and are now on the verge of losing a chance to host a super regional.

[autotag]Dylan Crews[/autotag] now looks more human as he is only hitting .200 in the last seven games. [autotag]Tommy White[/autotag] has picked up that slack, though, as he is hitting .567 over that same span.

Skenes, on the bright side, has turned into Kurt Russell from “Tombstone” ever since he debuted the mustache. He is bringing justice in the form of fastballs.

With LSU not playing its best baseball down the home stretch, here are the takeaways from last weekend as LSU prepares for the final SEC series of the regular season.
