"LSU falls to Wake Forest in intense College World Series matchup"

LSU baseball coach Jay Johnson defends his decision to send Tre Morgan from third base to home plate in the eighth inning of LSU's 3-2 loss to Wake Forest in the 2023 College World Series. Johnson believed that it was a no-brainer to send Morgan on contact, as not doing so would have resulted in a double play. Wake Forest took the lead in the bottom of the eighth inning on an RBI single from Bennett Lee before Camden Minacci ended the game in the ninth. LSU will face Tennessee in an elimination game on Tuesday.
