The No. 7 Kentucky Wildcats (38-16, 19-9) have won four straight series over SEC kingpin Florida, but their potential fifth has the possibility of a conference title on the line.
The Wildcats' 12-4 victory over the No. 5 Gators put them in a three-way tie for first place in the conference along with the LSU Tigers.
Game two in the series will take place at 7:00 P.M. Friday night in Gainesville.
