In game one of the Super Regional, Kentucky's scoring machine sputtered in the River City in a 5-2 loss to archrival Louisville thanks to an unexpected beauty on the mound.
The heart of the Wildcats lineup went a combined 3-of-19 at the plate. Kentucky did not score until the top of the ninth thanks to an Evan White homerun (Troy Marshall brought Riley Mahan home later in the inning) and left two runners on base when pinch-hitter T.J. Collet struck out swinging to end the game.
However, the problems for UK started much earlier in the game, all the way in the first inning.
