The LSU Tigers and UCLA Bruins will resume play on Tuesday morning following a weather delay during the College World Series matchup on Monday night.

After three innings in Omaha (Neb.), inclement weather in the area forced the game to be delayed at 7:20 p.m. CT.

Heading into the delay, it was the LSU Tigers that held a 5-3 lead following a rollercoaster first inning at Charles Schwab Field.

The Bruins took an early 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning with LSU right-hander Anthony Eyanson shaky to start the showdown.

For the Tigers, a three-run homer from Jared Jones in the bottom of the first frame provided the Tigers with a lead following an RBI single from Jake Brown.

LSU tacked on another run on an RBI single from Luis Hernandez in the bottom of the third inning to take a 5-3 lead.
