The blast marked Milam’s second walk-off home run in LSU’s past three games – he also accomplished the feat with a 10th-inning, two-run dinger last Saturday in an SEC Tournament semifinal win over South Carolina.“What a game, I’m really proud of our team,” said LSU coach Jay Johnson. “Wofford is a great team, and we knew that coming in. They did a lot of things right today. Fortunately for us, we have great players.“Another clutch performance by Steven. I know the two home runs really stand out, but he took four great at-bats bats today.”“I wasn’t trying to win it in one swing,” Milam said. “That’s when you do too much. (Bouchard) threw probably, I think, eight fastballs, so I got my timing down and got a pitch I could drive, and it ended up leaving the park.”LSU reliever Griffin Herring (5-1) was credited with the win after retiring the Terriers in order in the top of the ninth inning.Watch more exclusive content from LSU Baseball on LSU.GOLD → https://lsul.su/485G3hUListen to In The Dirt on your favorite podcast platform → https://lsul.su/HFPConnect with LSU Baseball on all our social media platforms ⤵️ Visit our website: https://lsusports.net/sports/bsb/ Follow us on Twitter: https://lsul.su/3NbGRcI Follow us on Instagram: https://lsul.su/3RwjQUJ Like us on Facebook: https://lsul.su/486267N
