(Tiger Rag photo by Jonathan Mailhes).<\/p>\n<p>By GLENN GUILBEAU, Tiger Rag Editor<\/p>\n<p>No. 2 LSU ended its slump and then some on Friday night with a 15-4, 10-run-rule win over Sacramento State in seven innings at Alex Box Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Jake Brown basically took care of the hitting dry spell by himself with three home runs in his first three at-bats. No LSU hitter had done that since Eddy Furniss on March 13, 1998, in an 11-8 win at Auburn.<\/p>\n<p>The junior right fielder from Sulphur gave LSU a 2-0 lead in the first inning with a two-run home run to left-center field. Brown made it 7-0 in the second with a solo shot over the center field wall. And he made it 11-0 in the third with a three-run home run to right center for good measure.<\/p>\n<p>The Tigers (12-3) came into the game riding a two-game losing streak and hitting .209 over their last six games. The two teams meet again Saturday at 2 p.m. in a game moved up from 6 p.m. late Friday because of bad weather in the forecast.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If LSU doesn\u2019t beat Sacramento State tonight, it will have 3 straight losses to mid-week-type opponents for 1st time in nearly 20 years.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ORO13VddUb\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/t.co\/ORO13VddUb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Glenn Guilbeau (@SportBeatTweet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SportBeatTweet\/status\/2029991721480647107?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">March 6, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Brown has eight home runs and 26 RBIs on the season. He added a single in the fourth inning before finally being retired in the sixth on a ground out to third base, finishing 4-for-5 with the three homers and six RBIs.<\/p>\n<p>LSU got home runs from three other players in its 14-hit attack. Derek Curiel hit a two-run home run for a 6-0 lead in the second inning and added an RBI double in a 3-for-4 night with three RBIs. Cade Arrambide  belted a solo home run in the fourth for a 13-0 lead, and Steven Milam\u2019s two-run home run in the same inning made it 15-0.<\/p>\n<p>Tigers\u2019 starter Casan Evans (1-0) had a no-hitter after five innings as he retired 15 consecutive batters. Cameron Sewell led off the sixth with a single, though, and Sacramento State went on to get two runs on three hits. Evans dominated, striking out nine and allowing just the three hits and zero walks in five and two-thirds innings for the win. He threw 72 pitches with 52 strikes.<\/p>\n<p>Sacramento State fell to 3-10.<\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LSU&#8217;s Jake Brown celebrates one of his 3 home runs in his first 3 at-bats Friday night as&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209665,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[96146,96147,96497,13648,121,123,122,5481],"class_list":{"0":"post-209664","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sacramento","8":"tag-derek-curiel","9":"tag-jake-brown","10":"tag-lsu-baseball","11":"tag-lsu-tigers","12":"tag-sacramento","13":"tag-sacramento-headlines","14":"tag-sacramento-news","15":"tag-sacramento-state"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209664","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209664"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209664\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209664"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209664"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209664"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
