After a career day from pitcher Ty Floyd and a two-home run performance from outfielder Dylan Crews, No.1 LSU wins 8-4 over Ole Miss to pick up its fifth SEC series win.

LSU improved to 31-7 overall and 11-5 in the SEC as the Tigers clinched a series win over the Rebels. Ole Miss dropped to 21-18 overall and 3-14 in conference play.

Floyd (6-0) hurled for 8.1 innings, the longest outing of his career, to limit Ole Miss to three runs on just five hits with one walk and eight strikeouts.

“Ty just was so sharp and that allowed him to extend, just a phenomenal effort,” LSU coach Jay Johnson said.
