Lynch Legacy: Brothers Tim, Danny leave mark on Southern Miss baseball
SUMMARY: Danny Lynch, a senior third baseman, played his final game for Southern Miss over a decade after his older brother Tim Lynch played his first. While the brothers never played together at the university, their legacies are intertwined, including Tim’s involvement in a game-changing 8-6-3-2- double cut. The brothers also have contrasting talents: Tim’s prowess saw him drafted in the ninth round last year, while Danny went on to break the school’s all-time record for games played. For nine out of the last 11 seasons, a Lynch brother has played for Southern Miss.
