Can a pick-off attempt at third base be called a strike? If it's possible, it's going to happen in this game.

Are you talking about the outside pitch that was called a strike?

Are you talking about all of the the outside pitches that were called strikes? Yes!

LSU pitcher got some called strikes on pitches to lefties that were on the white stripe of the right-handed batter's box.

Hard to say, all the OSU pitches have been hit out of the park.  I don't know, haven't been watching that close.

Umps been consistent all game long, and LSU pitcher has been right around the plate all day long. That's a recipe for an expanded strike zone. I personally like it much more than watching 4 hour ball games.
Good to see LSU kicking OSU's azzz again. SEC ain't just a football powerhouse.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

GEAUX TIGERS!
I've watched football and baseball going on 70 years and I came to the conclusion a long time ago that a guy has to be a better athlete to play baseball than a 'grunt' in football!! Baseball is a thinking mans' game!!

Good to see LSU kicking OSU's azzz again. SEC ain't just a football powerhouse. Agreed on the consistency. Simple fact is some umpires like an outside pitch, or a low pitch, and it's the pitcher and hitter's job to recognize that.
