On the eve of the start of the College World Series championship series, the New York Times has a profile of LSU baseball coach Paul Mainieri. Mainieri hopes to follow in the footsteps of Skip Bertman, who led the Tigers to five CWS championships, and his father, Doc, who coached Miami-Dade Community College North to a national junior-college baseball championship. “My dad won a national championship in 1964, and I’d love for him to witness his son doing it,” Mainieri told the newspaper. Read the full story here. The first pitch of the LSU-Texas championship series is at 6 p.m. today. The best-of-three series will be televised by ESPN.
