Wild Thing and Nuke were all over the place in LSU baseball's SEC opening win

If you ever wondered what would happen if two of the most iconic movie baseball pitching characters, Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn from "Major League" and "Nuke" LaLoosh of "Bull Durham" ever faced each other, perhaps you should have been at LSU's SEC opening 4-2 victory over Missouri Friday night.

Starters Zack Hess of LSU and Bryce Montes De Ocas of Missouri showed up with their low-to-mid 90 miles per hour fastballs and occasional control problems that kept batters guessing and the Alex Box Stadium crowd of 10,334 on edge.

Or maybe it was the batters on edge and the crowd guessing.
