Tigers Win, Episode 1: Paul Mainieri
No one in the game has more wins than Paul Mainieri. LSU's head baseball coach is nearing 1,600 for his career, so I couldn't think of a better first guest for a podcast about winning than Coach Mainieri. Even better is that he has as many stories as he does victories. On today's show, we talk about milestones, mentors, leaving LSU to find out how good he was as a player, and coming back to find out how good he was as a coach.
