As the LSU Baseball head coach's career came to an end, the announcer at Paul Mainieri's last game as the Tigers leader congratulated him on his career. As the announcement came over the loud-speaker, a myriad of boos came from the crowd while Mainieri soaked up the last moments of his time with the Tigers.

The LSU Tigers baseball team concluded their season's journey with a loss to Tennessee. Head Coach Paul Mainieri concluded a journey of his own, with it being the last game of a 15-year-run as the Tigers leader. Hopes of a shot at a National Championship in Omaha, Nebraska were gone and so was this chapter in LSU Athletics history.

Coach Mainieri could be seen in the dugout as the game concluded soaking in what was life of his time at Louisiana State University. Probably not the way the head coach wanted to go out, but baseball is an unforgiving game and this man has been around long enough to understand that the game won't always love you back.

But as the PA announcer at the Super Regional in Knoxville, Tennessee congratulated Coach Mainieri in front of the whole stadium, a barrage of boos began flying his way. There were cheers mixed in with the reaction to the announcement, but the boos were clearly heard across the diamond.
