Kentucky Baseball Cracks the Top 25 for First Time in 2023

The Kentucky baseball team started off SEC play with a bang. Now they’re receiving some well-deserved recognition as one of the best 25 teams in college baseball.

Kentucky improved to 18-2, winning its 14th straight game with a 17-3 victory over Mississippi State on Sunday. The Wildcats won in extra innings Friday night, then blew out the Bulldogs on Saturday for a third-straight series sweep, and the first of an SEC opponent.

Monday morning Kentucky was in not one, but two Top 25 polls. The Wildcats are ranked No. 23 by D1Baseball and No. 25 by Baseball America.
