During its rise as a national power in the 1990s, LSU built its identity on prodigious home run numbers. The Tigers still have plenty of offense, but pitching is the name of the game in the bayou nowadays. LSUòòò½ÊÓÆµ™s pitching prowess was omnipresent in the College World Series as the Tigers won their second national championship in three years with a two-game sweep of Coastal Carolina in the finals. The Tigers posted a CWS-best 2.60 ERA over five games and opponents batted .205 and just .145 with runners in scoring position. Kade Anderson was selected Most Outstanding Player.

Coastal Carolina coach Kevin Schnall was ejected along with first base coach Matt Schilling in the first inning of Game 2 of the College World Series finals. He said his ejection was unwarranted and that he was wrongly accused of bumping an umpire. Schnall went to the top steps of the dugout, gestured at plate umpire Angel Campos with three fingers and began shouting at him. When Schnall was arguing with Campos, one of the base umpires ran toward the confrontation and fell on his back.
