No. 2 Kentucky baseball (39-11 22-7 SEC) defeated Vanderbilt (34-20 12-17 SEC) in mercy rule fashion by a score of 17-7 to clinch the 2024 regular season SEC Championship.
The championship was the Wildcats’ first since 2006 and their first inside of Kentucky Proud Park.
“That’s what I told them tonight,” Kentucky head coach Nick Mingione said. “They’ll forever be SEC Champions and no one will ever be able to take that away and they’ll remember tonight for the rest of your life.”
