Tuesday Headlines: Kentucky Baseball advances to Super Regionals

Wheels up to Baton Rouge!

Syndication: The Courier-Journal Sam Upshaw Jr./Courier Journal / USA TODAY NETWORK

Good Morning BBN!

It was an exciting night in Lexington, as the Kentucky Wildcats Baseball team advances to the Super Regionals for just the second time in school history, as they knocked off the Indiana Hoosiers 4-2 on Monday night.

In what ended up being a true rubber match between the Cats and the Hoosiers, it was a big sixth inning that helped propel Kentucky to the next round of the tournament. Also, with some solid outings once again from Darren Williams and Mason Moore, the Hoosiers were left guessing all night and held them to only one hit with RISP all night.

Next up for the Cats are the No. 5 national seed, the LSU Tigers.

Earlier this season, Kentucky took one out of three in Baton Rouge from the Tigers. Now they will once again have to face off against the two top prospects in next month's MLB draft in Dylan Crews and Paul Skenes.

Kentucky was competitive the last time these two clubs faces off. Now it’s down to the best two out of three. Can the Cats finally advance to Omaha? I know all of BBN is hoping so.

Go Cats!
