The Men’s College World Series may conclude on Sunday afternoon, crowning a national champion for the 2025 NCAA college baseball season. LSU emerged victorious in Game 1 on Saturday night, prevailing 1-0, thanks to an outstanding performance by Tigers’ pitcher Kade Anderson. The All-American sophomore delivered eight scoreless innings, allowing merely three hits and five walks while striking out 10 batters on 130 pitches.
Looking ahead to Game 2, right-hander Anthony Eyanson is slated to start for LSU. Eyanson boasts an impressive 11-2 record and a 2.92 ERA this season, with 143 strikeouts across 101 2/3 innings. Coastal Carolina will counter with right-hander Jacob Morrison, who holds a perfect 12-0 record, a 2.08 ERA, and 102 strikeouts in 104 innings.
A victory in Game 2 would secure LSU’s second NCAA baseball championship in three seasons and eighth in school history. Additionally, it would mark the SEC’s fifth consecutive national title. On the other hand, Coastal Carolina must win to force a decisive third game on Monday and continue their pursuit of a second national championship in a decade, following their 2016 Men’s College World Series triumph.
