Gators’ bats go quiet in loss to Kentucky in series finale

The Gators’ offense entered Sunday’s series finale with Kentucky scorching hot. They scored 18 runs on 21 hits in a pair of blowout wins to open the series.

However, there’s a saying in baseball that “momentum equals the next day’s starting pitcher,” and that proved to be correct once again on Sunday afternoon at Condron Ballpark.

Kentucky starter Sean Harney gave up just one run on five hits in seven innings. Meanwhile, the Wildcats’ offense enjoyed success early and late in the game to take a commanding lead. UK closer Tyler Guilfoil struck out five of the seven batters that he faced and didn’t allow a hit to finish out the game.
