A nightmare first inning and missed opportunities resulted in No. 3 Kentucky baseball (32-6, 15-2 SEC) being defeated by No. 4 Tennessee (32-7, 11-6 SEC) by a score of 9-4 on Saturday.
The largest crowd in Kentucky baseball history record set in game one lasted less than one day as it was broken again in game two when 7,304 fans packed Kentucky Proud Park.
“Just looking around and seeing all the people was truly amazing,” Kentucky head coach Nick Mingione said. “I’m so thankful for all the fans that came out today.”
