Kentucky baseball (15-3 1-0 SEC) came from behind twice to defeat the Georgia Bulldogs (17-2 0-1 SEC) by a score of 16-10 on Friday.

“I think we had full confidence we were going to come back and we never had a doubt in our mind,” Nolan McCarthy said.

Travis Smith started for Kentucky and ran into early trouble when Charlie Goldstein singled to left field to bring home Charlie Condon and put the Wildcats behind 1-0.
