2012 SEC BASEBALL TOURNAMENT

Stratton comes out, replaced by their stud closer, Caleb Reed to start the bot 7

Baseball America describes Reed as "a security blanket at the end of games, a fearless bulldog with a heavy sinker, a wipeout slider and the ability to pitch multiple innings. [MSU coach] Cohen likes using Reed as a closer, a role that allows him to influence the outcome of multiple games over the course of a weekend"

 

Reed knocks LSU down 1-2-3 in bot of 7 with one K

 

Edward goes down swinging
Hanover out on a roller to 2B
Jones robbed of a base hit, great diving catch by MSU LF
