In a Mother’s Day marathon that lasted just over five hours due to an hour lightning delay, the Kentucky Bat ‘Cats (35-15; 15-12 SEC) reversed their weekend fortunes with a great start, leading to a 10-0 win over the Volunteers on Sunday to avoid the sweep and stay a game ahead of Tennessee in the Southeastern Conference standings.
An up-and-down regular season will commence next weekend when the Wildcats host the No. 7 ranked Florida Gators in Lexington at Kentucky Proud Park. The ‘Cats have all but wrapped up an NCAA Tournament bid and kept themselves in contention to host a Regional by avoiding a sweep this weekend.
