Merritt had no chance. He's been overwhelmed tonight. LSU gonna ride Skenes all the way to the finish line aren't they? Over 100 pitches and he's still pushing triple digits. Guy ain't human.
Honestly, play some of the freshmen. They’ll give you just as much as Merritt does and the at bats will be as valuable for next season as they will be this season.
Merritt & Ahuna are overmatched against SEC pitching. Merritt batting 0.053 and Ahuna batting 0.261 in previous 6 SEC games. Those numbers are going lower after tonight.
I like the confidence. I hope you’re right. I’m just not seeing it with the bats. I think we’ll win 1 of the next two for sure though. We’ll see how the rest of things unfold from there.
