Pretty annoyed at the strikeouts. Morehead struck out the side in the bottom of the second after Cottam drew a lead off walk. That can't happen against this team. Swung at a lot of balls.

UK got something working here. Johnson singled, Dawson walked and Pompey hbp to load them. Big time spot here for UK to blow this one wide.

Squires does his job and sac flies in a run. UK leads 1-0 with 1 out and runners on the corners.

Becker also does his job with a deep fly ball! 2-0 UK. We actually have a runner at 3rd now. So, everyone has moved up on both those sacs.

Hits would be better, but love that they are putting the ball in play.

Cottam gets that hit!! 3-0 UK

Cottam thrown out trying to take second on a ball in the dirt. Going to the 4th with UK up 3-0.

Harper struggling again. Walks the first two before getting a fly ball to center for out one.

Morehead goes to another pitcher after Shinn and Aklinski walk. Johnson then lines into a double play that gets Aklinski at second and Shinn gets thrown out trying to steal second. That's 3 outs on the bases tonight, all trying to take second.

R Johnson should have sac bunted the runners to 2nd and 3rd. Then maybe Dawson can get a sac fly or rbi ground out, or safety squeeze !

Harper gives up back to back singles and UK turns to Coleman to get them out of this jam. UK still up 4 in the top of the 5th

With a little more luck that hit scores a run instead of being two outs. I'm not mad at the decision either way. At least not with a 4 run lead.

Coleman does what he does best and starts off with a strikeout and follows it up with the same for out number 2.

We keep putting the first two on each inning, somebody's getting burned.

Kentucky really likes to play with fire in this one. Once again allows the first two to reach and then Coleman gets a strikeout and a double play to end the threat.

Cats 1 for 5 today on stolen bases but a passed ball scores Cottam.

Cottam walked and Heyer singled to move him to 3rd. Heyer tried to take second but got caught. UK bench thought it was a balk. A passed ball scored Cottam to give UK 5-0. Aklinski then walks.

Batting 0.266 for this game so far even with all the walks. The walks were conjectured to improve our batting average. Not happening so far this game.

Tennessee Tech beat the Vols 7-6. Keep the nations longest win streak alive. Former UK player has his team in the top 25 and looking at a 2 seed.

Can't believe they sent Squires. It looked like he was plowing the south 40 coming around 3rd. Was out by a mile.

Maley pitching in the 8th. He gives up a lead off walk and gets a weaker liner to short for the first out. A single to left puts them on the corners before a deep fly scores a run. 5-1
