First baseman Jared Jones' three-run walk-off homer in the bottom of the ninth inning Friday night capped a six-run rally, as fourth-ranked LSU defeated No. 5 Tennessee, 6-3, in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field.
The game was originally scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. CT, but inclement weather in the Baton Rouge area forced the start time to be moved to 9:50 p.m. CT. Friday night’s game will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network +.
