Cats vs Vanderbilt on Sunday - Can we get the sweep?
- Thread starter Old_Red
- Start date
Lewis walks the first batter in the 3rd. He just may be close to being done. That would be bad news for Kentucky.
Update: bad base running by Vandy costs them the runner as Toffee gets caught trying to steal 2nd. Lewis then gets Hayes to strike out.

Lewis makes it through another inning stranding another runner. That makes 8 which may end up being the story. Vandy has left a lot of runs on the base paths. And now Lewis seems to be figuring out how to make it work even though he doesn't have great command today.
Lewis has had a pretty awful day. Walks the lead-off batter in every inning but one, and now Vandy has tied it 2-2 in the 6th. Runners on the corner and no one out. Ugh.
Vandy up 2 on a single and a home run, still no outs. You should turn it off, must be bad luck. ;-)
Didn't get the timely hit today, we have done it so many times this season. Still, a game we could have won.
However, we did win the series vs Vandy and we are still 7-2 in the SEC.

Some excellent quotes from Riley Mahan and Nick Mingione in this story on UK not being satisfied with just winning series.

One thing that stood out today was Lewis didn't have his best stuff but he competed and battled and kept us in the game. Missed on a few opportunities offensively but you can't question their effort or their approach to playing the game.
Disappointing Sunday game, but the name of the game is winning weekend series in the SEC so it was still a successful week.
I was really disappointed in Lewis, he has looked so good this year and had only walked 7-8 batters the entire season prior to Sunday. Can't fault a guy for a single "off" game, but was hoping that we could overcome it.

He wasn't as sharp as his previous outings, but he wasn't the losing pitcher. Cats left the bases loaded on 2 occasions, and a timely hit here or there would have been a winner !
True, but in fairness, Vandy also left a ton of runners stranded. We were extremely fortunate to be in the game at all.
