College World Series weather updates: Latest news as thunderstorms, rain delay UCLA-LSU game

Through three innings, UCLA and LSU's joust in the College World Series was shaping up to be a compelling — and run-filled — affair.

The Bruins and Tigers' lineups showed off their considerable talent, combing for eight runs, seven of which came during a frenetic first inning.

With that, here are the latest updates on UCLA and LSU's matchup after stormy weather prompted tournament organizers to put a halt to the contest.
