Pig just cannot beat LSU in baseball
I was not surprised that Arkansas scored 2 runs in the top of the 9th inning, but I couldn't believe how LSU scored 3 runs with just one out left because Arkansas made several blunders.Luke The Drifter said:

Report: Dan Skirka staying at Murray State with four-year extension
Logan Whaley 42 mins ago
MURRAY, Ky. -- After leading Murray State baseball to their first ever College World Series trip, head coach Dan Skirka will be staying with the Racers, despite interest from other programs, agreeing to a four-year extension on Thursday that is expected to make him the highest paid coach in the Missouri Valley Conference.
D1Baseball first reported the details. Sources later confirmed the details with WPSD.
The news comes as Skirka was reportedly a finalist for the Duke head coaching vacancy after the Racers beat the Blue Devils in the Durham Super Regional. Duke hired Wake Forest pitching coach Corey Muscara as their new head coach Thursday afternoon.
Skirka just wrapped up his seventh season at the helm, leading the Racers to a school-record 44 wins, their first Conference Tournament title since 2003, their first NCAA Tournament win since 1979 and their first College World Series appearance in 86 years of school history.
On June 13, Skirka was named the Mike Martin National Coach of the Year by the National College Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA).
The Racers have had 5 straight 30+ win seasons under Skirka, the longest such streak in program history. He has an overall record of 209-152.
This is a developing story, we will update this story with the latest....
In other words, never ever tempt the malicious and capricious baseball gods.swimmerbabe11 said:*sad woo pig noises* pic.twitter.com/DGsOeyHCSw
