Kentucky rode a strong pitching performance from Jaxon Jelkin to take game one against LSU on Friday night. The Bat Cats got eight innings from their ace and had a bullpen ready to role for the final two games. Unfortunately, there was no chance to win the game on Saturday due to the offense being shutout. That wasn’t the case on Sunday.
The offense started hot as UK ran out to a 7-0 lead in the third inning. That was not enough for a win on Sunday afternoon at Alex Box Stadium. LSU (19-10, 4-5) got three home runs and used 11 free passes to make those big hits count. After a tough loss on Friday, Jay Johnson‘s club responded to take a big series after dropping the first two to Vanderbilt and Oklahoma in SEC play.
