LSU baseball gets back in the win column against McNeese on Tuesday night
After falling out of the baseball polls for the first time in a year, the Tigers looked to get some good news. They got just that with a 16-0 victory over McNeese.
Jared Jones got the scoring started in the bottom of the first inning with a solo homer. Paxton Kling followed that with an RBI single and Stephen Milam cleared the bases with a three-RBI triple to give LSU a 5-0 lead.
