LSU crowned champs, Aaron Judges' biggest MVP threat + must-see starting pitchers' duel

Baseball Bar-B-Cast

On Sunday, the LSU Tigers roared yet again en route to their second Men’s College World Series title in the past three years, defeating Coastal Carolina two games to none. After an impressive complete-game shutout by Kade Anderson in game one, the Tigers took care of business in game two to secure their 8th title since 1991.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about LSU’s impressive 10-1 postseason run this year, led by head coach Jay Johnson, and why the title seemed inevitable yet again for the boys from the bayou. They then discuss the controversial moment in game two that saw Coastal’s head coach, Kevin Schnall, get ejected in the 1st inning.

Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan highlight the incredible offensive season from Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh and whether he’s a legitimate threat to Aaron Judge for the American League Most Valuable Player. They also recap all the weekend action, including Shohei Ohtani taking the mound for his second start of the season, Rafael Devers facing off against the Boston Red Sox and a must-see pitching matchup between Paul Skenes and Jacob Misiorowski.
