Summary: LSU baseball opened up the most highly anticipated season in recent memory on Friday afternoon against Western Michigan. The Tigers came out of the weekend with a sweep over Western Michigan outscoring them 24-5 through a three game series, which LSU should have done since LSU is the consensus number one team in the country. What did we see from Jay Johnson's squad this weekend that could make Tigers fans encouraged that some of the issues holding back the 2022 team, like bullpen depth and starting pitching, have been improved upon for Johnson's second year as the Tigers skipper? Plus, NC State transfer Tommy White left Friday's game in the first inning after he injured his shoulder diving for first base. White struggled with a shoulder injury last season that kept him out of conference play for almost two weeks. White was the clean-up hitter Friday night, which is to be expected considering his track record behind the plate, so he will be a loss for this team both offensively and defensively. But how long is he expected to be out? How did this team overcome it, and how will they adjust to his absence with Texas and other Division I opponents coming up this weekend at the Round Rock Classic in Houston?
