Week 2 of intrasquad scrimmages started Thursday night at Alex Box Stadium.
We learned a couple of important things during the games last week. We learned that Tommy White is who we thought he was and that Paul Skenes is an anomaly.
White was one of the biggest pickups from LSU’s 2022 transfer portal class. He was a star at North Carolina State, breaking the school record for most homers by a freshman in one season in 2022. White hit a home run during one of the games last week that had an exit velocity of 109.3 mph, and it traveled 392 feet. Good luck pitching against him.
Skenes may be LSU’s version of Shohei Ohtani. He was another high-profile transfer who spent two years at the Air Force Academy where he had a batting average of .367 in two years and an ERA of 2.73. Those are unreal numbers.
Since showing up at LSU, everyone on the team and coaching staff has raved about how talented Skenes is.
