Sorry CB, didn't see your thread, before starting one. We will go with yours, as you have the line ups posted !

 

[AgesBlue]

Looks like pretty nice weather, sunny and 60 degrees, winds 6-10 mph. Great evening for another Cat victory !

 

[STUCKNBIG10]

Dud of a start for UK, looked pretty bad against UL pitcher. On to the bottom of 1st

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Cats go 1,2,3 in the 1st inning. Making the UL freshman look like Koufax.

 

[Glenn's take]

It's not very often when I'm happy I have ACC Network online.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Harper with a 1,2,3, first inning. Cards made him look like a young Drysdale.

 

[AgesBlue]

^^^^ I see what you did there with those 2 posts !

Why do we look at so many strikes?

Working counts is their MO. It pays off in the long game.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Trey Dawson solo HR stakes UK to a 1-0 lead, T3.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Dawson HOME RUN!!!!

 

[Old_Red]

Wyatt kind of lost his mind, right? He was out by a lot.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

END OF 3: Kentucky 1, Louisville 0. Cats starter Daniel Harper has faced the minimum so far.

Harper lookin pretty good !

 

[Comebakatz3]

5 strikeouts. We're really good at them at this point

 

[BlueRupp]

Nice showing by Cat fans.

 

[RR30]

Cottam just missed a 2 run homer there. Hit it hard.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Becker aggressive at the plate and on the bases. Cottam about 5 ft. short of a HR.

 

[BlueRupp]

Lead off double for UofL.

 

[BlueRupp]

Nice play by UK throwing out the runner at home.

Play under review.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Great play by A Rod and Cottam on the grounder at 3rd. Appeal should let the call stand.

 

[RR30]

Great play by Rodriguez to get the runner at home.

 

[BlueRupp]

Looked clearly out to me, announcer said he thought he was safe.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Harper has only faced 13 batters, but has thrown 59 pitches, an average of 4.5 per batter. Not going to last too much longer.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Shocker. Lol

 

[RR30]

Walk the runner to scoring position and then the run scoring hit. Not good.

 

[BlueRupp]

UofL ties game.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Daniel Harper makes a mistake after going up 0-2 in the count on UofL's Stowers. Gives up an RBI single to tie the game at 1-1, B4.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

And another 2-out hit by Oriente puts Cards up 2-1, B4.

 

[BlueRupp]

UofL takes lead 2-1.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

That will be it for Harper. Carson Coleman coming on from the UK bullpen.

 

[Comebakatz3]

We have so many terrible habits. Striking out and giving up 2 strike hits.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Until the Cards scored with 2 out in the 4th, UK had a string of 16 and 2/3 scoreless innings dating back to Saturday's 1st game against UGA.

 

[irishcat1965]

Two strike, two out hits. Over and over and over.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Harper's gotta be more aggressive and willing to pitch inside when he's ahead in the count. Louisville was sitting on the soft stuff away.

 

[RR30]

Two strike, two out hits. Over and over and over.

Have to locate better, especially when you are up 0-2 on a guy.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Louisville TV guys on replay where you couldn't really tell: "Oh, yeah, he got back in there."

Louisville TV guys when UK had their guy thrown out by a mile at home: "Oh, I don't know."

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Cards pulling starter Detmers with 2 outs in T5. Smiddy coming on with a UK runner at 2nd in 2-1 game.

 

[BlueRupp]

Ugh, another warning track catch for UofL.
