The University of Kentucky baseball team is in Lexington again this weekend for a three-game series against Missouri at Cliff Hagan Stadium beginning Friday.
Despite dropping last weekend's series against No. 1 Florida the Wildcats are still in the hunt for one of four byes in the Southeastern Conference Tournament. UK picked up a crucial win in the series finale last Sunday, edging the Gators 3-2 to improve to 8-10 in SEC play and remain two games behind in the race for a bye with 12 league games left.
A bye would mean UK would automatically qualify for the double-elimination portion of the tournament and avoid playing in the single-elimination round.
