On lsusports.net it says............. Buteau started in place of Ryan Patterson, a move Laval said was done to give the fifth-year senior a chance to prove himself. http://www.lsusports.net/index.cfm?md=newsroom&tmp=detail&articleid=7961&category=BB
All I can say is don't get too excited about all these homeruns early in the year. We did the exact same thing at the beginning of last year, and I thought we'd set the world on fire with the long ball. Then you're brought back down to earth when you realize it was just the competition. I would say the only thing the Tigers can take away from this series is getting to play someone other than themselves.
