This past weekend over 10,000 fans attended Kentucky Proud Park as No. 17 Kentucky baseball held a high-scoring No. 13 Crimson Tide offense to three runs including a shutout.

Central Connecticut State transfer starter Dominic Niman etched himself into Wildcat history after pitching a complete nine-inning shutout, becoming the first Wildcat since Zack Thompson in 2019 to accomplish the feat against an SEC opponent.
