It would have been easy for Nick Bush to be down on himself.
The sophomore reliever gave up the two game-winning runs to Arkansas on Friday (May 4). He gave up two more without getting an out Sunday, almost costing LSU the game. He could have been beating himself up while his teammates celebrated a series victory against the No. 4 team in the country.
But LSU baseball coach Paul Mainieri pulled Bush aside when he was done speaking to the team after the 7-5 series-clinching victory.
"We would not have had the success we have had this year without you," Mainieri told him.
