LSU Ends Ragin’ Cajuns Season
In recent weeks, Tony Robicheaux's team has been dubbed "Cardiac Cajuns." It looked like they would pull of another late inning comeback Saturday when Brenn Conrad tied the game at 3 in the top of the 9th with his first home run of the year. The Tigers' Chris Sciabra dashed those hopes with a walk off blast in the bottom of the inning. The Cajuns returned to Alex Box tonight hoping to even the series, and force a Monday rubber match. It was not to be. Head coach Tony Robicheaux sent Freshman All American, Sun Belt Freshman of the year Gunner Leger to the mound in a win or go home game. Leger pitched brilliantly through 7, allowing just 1 run. The tigers erupted for 4 in the 8th, chasing Leger, and reliever Dylan Butler. The Cajuns plated one in the bottom half. LSU added one in the top of the 9th, making it 6-1 LSU. The Cajuns added 2 in the bottom of the 9th. Final: 6-3 LSU.
