LSU's Dylan Crews dives safely back into first base ahead of the tag from Wake Forest's Nick Kurtz in the seventh inning of a baseball game at the NCAA College World Series in Omaha, Neb., Wednesday, June 21, 2023. LSU won 5-2.“It’s the same game we’ve been playing since February,” Beloso said. “We’re going to go out there, have fun, we’re going to compete to the best of our abilities and let the rest take care of itself. Everybody knows the scenario.
The coaches didn't announce starting pitchers, but aces Paul Skenes of LSU and Rhett Lowder of Wake Forest were not ruled out. The Deacons scored 75 runs and hit 19 homers in their first five NCAA Tournament games, all played at home. They have just eight runs — their fewest over three games since April 2021 — and one homer at Charles Schwab Field, where the wind has blown in for three days. They're batting .198 here, and leading hitter Nick Kurtz is 0 for 9 and Justin Johnson is 0 for 12.
“We play in a pretty small ballpark and the balls that usually go out there aren't going out here,” Pierce Bennett said. “We just need to adjust on keeping hard and low line drives. It’s hard to do. Hitting’s hard. You can’t really intentionally do that all the time. But just focusing in, zeroing in on just hitting line drives, finding the holes.”
The Tigers erased a 2-0 deficit in the third inning when Dylan Crews scored on a wild pitch to tie it and Beloso launched Seth Keener’s 2-0 offering into the right-field bullpen. As Beloso approached the plate, he pulled his helmet off, chest-bumped Gavin Dugas and slapped Tre’ Morgan’s arm — and then all three did cross-arm flexes in front of their celebrating dugout.
