LSU's Kade Anderson pitched a complete-game shutout, defeating Coastal Carolina 1-0 in Game 1 of the College World Series finals. Anderson's stellar performance, including 10 strikeouts, stifled Coastal Carolina's 26-game winning streak. The Tigers now lead the series 1-0 and are one win away from their eighth national title. Coastal Carolina's Cameron Flukey also pitched well but lacked run support. Game 2 determines if a deciding Game 3 will be needed.
