LSU's Steven Milam talks about the walk-off home run against South Carolina

Steven Milam played the hero for LSU on Saturday night. After a chaotic sequence that resulted in South Carolina taking the lead on catcher interference in the 10th inning, Milam hit a two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the inning and put LSU in position to play for a conference title on Sunday.

“I don’t even know how to describe it,” Milam told Kris Budden of the SEC Network after the game.

“We just kept fighting. That's just who we were. We learned from our losses. We learned from the difficult phase we went through. And now look at us,” Milam said.

Milam said he saw South Carolina's Garrett Gainey miss fastballs too high while pitching against Hayden Travinski. Milam was looking for another miss too high and that's exactly what he got.

It capped off a three-hit, two-run day for Milam, who was in top form throughout the SEC Tournament.

The Tigers will try to keep the magic going tomorrow in the SEC Championship.

“It was a great feeling, but we're not done yet. We have another game tomorrow,” Milam said.
