A huge weekend in Lexington starts now. Keeneland, the Blue-White Game at Historical Memorial Coliseum, and the Cats vs. another Manning at Kroger Field are getting most of the attention but that’s not the only big even occurring on campus. Over at Kentucky Proud Park, Nick Mingione’s club is opening the doors to allow the Big Blue Nation to get an early look at the 2026 Bat Cats.
First pitch is scheduled for 6:45 p.m. ET/5:45 p.m. CT.
Some former baseball players will be in town as the Big Blue Nation gets a chance to get an early look at a UK team that enters the season with sky-high expectations.
