Two games down, two run-rule shutouts for LSU softball.
The Tigers had no issues in their second game of the season on Friday night against Memphis at home, winning 19-0 as the game ended early due to a mercy rule.
After scoring one run in the first, LSU had a pair of homers as it scored four runs in the second. It really broke things open in the third as it scored eight runs on two homers, and the Tigers plated six more runs in the fourth inning.
