Kentucky at Georgia (Saturday)

Collett with a absolute no doubter to right center and it’s 2-3 going into the bottom of the 4th.
 
UK with runners at second and third with 1 out. UGA going to the pen to face Collett.
 
With the go ahead run at third UK gets back to back infield pop ups for outs one and two from Schultz and Collett. Rhodes then strikes out.
Terrible hitting by the top of the lineup.

4-4 going to bottom 5
 
Georgia also got a guy to third with less than 2 outs but UK gets out of it Daniels came in to get the last out. 4-4
 
Think there were no outs. Had to popups and a K.

There was 1 out when Collett came up and UGA changed pitchers, but yea, UK gas runners at 2nd and 3rd with 0 outs. Schultz and Collett popped up on the infield and Rhodes struck out.
 
The Church experiment probably needs to end. 3 of his last 35. That's just not cutting it and UK could move things around to get better hitting and better defense if they replaced him.

Feel the same with Daniel's and Church. Georgia playing good fundamental baseball. Getting guys on base and doing what it takes to get them across the plate. That 5th inning was a game changer.
 
UK apparently can't get 2 innings out of a pitcher from the pen. Both have come in and struggled in the second inning.
 
Kessler is mad because the UGA pitcher quick pitched and it wasn't called a balk. It was obvious.

UK gets a run back as Plastiak flairs one into shallow center to score Rhodes before Anu gets thrown out at third on the same play.

5-7
 
Hindsight is 20/20 but what I think should have been done:

Daniels gets you out of the fifth, go to Harper for the sixth the Jones for the 7 / Degen 8th Riggs 9th... stay on positives and get them out but oh well
 
UK gives up another leadoff double. 5 innings in a row for UGA getting the leadoff hitter on. That is a recipe for disaster for UK.
 
Ritter swinging like he can tie this up on one swing. Not swinging like he's looking for a base hit.
 
Now he's shortened it up a bit and he's in a battle. He hits it well but the ball park holds it for out 1. Estep up and he strikes out. Church being taken down for Harmon.
 
Coming into this game Harris had a bad reputation for walking a whole lot of people. I don't think he's walked many, if any, UK batters. He did hit a couple though.

I type that and Harmon draws a walk.
 
Grace comes in to run for Harmonn

Schultz up. He homers over the left field wall. He knew it the moment it left the bat. 7-8
 
UGA going to a new pitcher to try to close this out. Collett coming up with 2 outs.
