The Tigers are heading into the losers’ bracket at the 2023 SEC baseball tournament after dropping its game against Arkansas in the winners’ game on Thursday.
Pitcher Paul Skenes looked relatively human as he was credited with just his second loss of the season. He made it just 3.2 innings, giving up five runs though only two of them were earned.
LSU rallied with runs in the eighth and ninth innings to cut the Razorback lead to one run, but Arkansas was ultimately able to prevail and advance to the semifinals on Saturday. The Tigers, meanwhile, will face No. 10 seed Texas A&M in an elimination game on Friday at 3 p.m. CT.
Here were the photos from Thursday’s loss.
