College baseball head coaches are getting more and more used to live in-game interviews, but that doesn’t mean the coaches always love doing them. That includes LSU head coach Jay Johnson, who had to do his interview live as one of his Tigers players made an untimely play.
The play came in the top of the 3rd inning when Ryder Helfrick for Arkansas dropped down a clean bunt to third base. It was always going to be a tough play for Michael Braswell III to get Helfrick, and the Razorbacks runner would reach with a hit that was credited as an infield single.
On-air, Johnson was not in a joking mood:
“That’s why I hate doing these things,” Johnson deadpanned in reference to the interview while the game was ongoing.

The inning produced the first real scare of the game for LSU after the Razorbacks loaded the bases with a walk and a single with one out. Fortunately, Anthony Eyanson struck out the next 2 batters to get out of the jam.
The weekend series between LSU and Arkansas is one of the best in the country between a pair of top 10 teams and series College World Series contenders. The Tigers took Game 1 with a walk-off into the early-morning hours of Saturday, and they jumped all over Arkansas starter Gage Wood with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the first inning.
LSU will try to finalize a series victory, but both the Tigers and Razorbacks are right in line to potentially host a regional site when the NCAA Tournament begins.
