Regional Breakdown: LSU earns No. 5 national seed in 2023 NCAA Baseball Tournament

The Tigers are hosting a regional for the first time since 2019.

The Tigers spent much of the year as the No. 1 team in the country, but when it was all said and done, LSU ended up earning the No. 5 national seed in the 2023 NCAA Baseball Tournament.

Coach Jay Johnson’s team will host the Baton Rouge Regional this week, and it will open up its run in the postseason against a Tulane team that won the American Athletic Conference tournament despite having a 19-40 record.

Also joining LSU in Baton Rouge will be Sam Houston State and Oregon State, who will face each other on Friday.

Here’s a full rundown of the Baton Rouge Regional.
