On this episode of the D1 Daily, Burkie and Roons open with a discussion of LSU winning a chippy SEC series over Kentucky that featured dugout shouting between Jay Johnson and Nick Mingione.

Then, they run through “Real Dudes” nominees, highlighting hitters Luke Pettitte (Dallas Baptist), Gavin Nash, Marcos Rosales (UNLV), and Gonzaga’s Maddox Haley, who had a huge week and is hitting .509. On the mound, they note standout outings from Ethan Norby (East Carolina), including an immaculate inning; Brennan Garza (Ball State) with a seven-inning no-hitter; Cal State Fullerton’s Mikie Negrete; Florida State’s Wes Mendez; and Northern Illinois lefty Max Vaisvila’s nine-inning one-hitter with 14 strikeouts.
