Tommy White leads LSU baseball to a big win over Louisiana

White, an NC State transfer, had three home runs in 18 innings to lead the Tigers past Louisiana in the two-part scrimmage.

On Sunday, LSU baseball played an 18-inning scrimmage game against the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns at Moore Field in Lafayette, Louisiana.

The game was divided into two nine-inning segments with a break in between both segments. LSU won the first game 8-2 and won the second game 5-2. The Tigers were led by NC State transfer [autotag]Tommy White[/autotag]. His teammates call him “Tommy Tanks” for a reason as White finished Sunday’s 18-inning scrimmage 6-for-8 at the plate with one double, three homers and five RBI.

On the mound, [autotag]Grant Taylor[/autotag] and [autotag]Ty Floyd[/autotag] led the way in the first nine innings as they combined to pitch six scoreless innings with no hits, no walks, and seven strikeouts. [autotag]Chase Shores[/autotag], [autotag]Nate Ackenhausen[/autotag] and [autotag]Bryce Collins[/autotag] combined to pitch seven innings allowing one hit, one walk and 13 strikeouts in the second nine innings.

LSU will be back in action this Friday as the Tigers begin the annual Purple/Gold World Series.
