Cats strand 2 in the 5th. Pompey got a pitch to hit and drove it to the warning track in dead CF, but Cards hauled it in. UofL 2, UK 1
Kentucky at OTIS

Lol, guess I should've clarified. Had 3 players run into each other but everyone is good.
UofL has 2 on with 1 out.
They're pitching to UofL like they're scared to death. These walks are going to eventually hurt in a BIG way.
Cards have loaded the bases with one out in the 5th. Danger time for UK, which has issued 5 walks. Alec Maley on in relief of Carson Coleman.
Failed pickoff attempt allows another UofL run. Louisville 5, Kentucky 1. A bit of a meltdown here by the UK bullpen and defense.
We've had 2 absurd replay delays in this game, and both were crystal-clear calls on the field.
It seemingly just confirms calls 90 percent of the time. Doesn't make sense when that's the results. Seems like coaches might be more conservative with the requests.
I get so damn fed up with games like this, where we aren’t focused and seem to be itimidated! Unreal, how we go from real good to real bad , game to game.
I was thinking about driving up to Louisville today. So far it was a good decision to stay home.
Tempers flare after UK's Ramsey goes up and in to UofL's Mann and hits him in the head after Louisville HR. Both dugouts warned.
There is a way you can handle a bit flip on a home run and it is at the plate, not from the mound.
This is absolutely pitiful, not to compete any better than this. Their backup pitchers dominating, and hitters just now doing batting practice. This is embarrassing , just like at Georgia ,win 14-1,lose 15-1 next game, and now this game that ought to be competitive , but we look lost.
Don't like the Ramsey retaillation of hitting a batter in the head.
UK has no pitching depth. There are only 3 guys you can trust, Hjelle, Lewis and Machemer. The rest of this staff is inconsistent. This team will not make it in the NCAA Regionals because you can not depend on the pitchers. Very disappointed with Bellinger and his coaching abilities.
Why does Mingione have such a tough time with UL? Seems like when they're the better team we get run, and when we're clearly better they play us super close or beat us. Just don't get it.
This team has been getting wins but sputtering along while doing so, hope Ming can get them going back to early season form....just feels like something has been off lately. They've been winning but it feels like guys are mentally struggling/step slow/etc. Feels like everyone just needs a few days off to recuperate...
Nothing pisses me off like losing to UL. Esp one that we should beat...

Infield single. It was hit so weak he made it to first before the throw.
That's this game in a nutshell.
GD I hate losing to those peckers. No reason we can't dominate that series...

END OF 7: Louisville 8, Kentucky 1. Not out of reach for potent Cats offense, but they have to get going if they're going to chip away.
Record will be 2-4 if this holds up tonight. Considering three of those came against the best UofL team in school history, that's not really bad.
Shoulda won both this season, but it's baseball. Unpredictable at times.
You have Jordan, Dobzanski, Marozas, and Macciocchi that aren't playing this year.
As much as I hate to lose to UofL in anything, this game doesn't mean much. But what scares me is the mindset for this weekend. This group could easily be swept and it may not be close.
