The University of Kentucky baseball team ended a successful road trip on a sour note on Tuesday. The Wildcats struggled at the plate and on the mound, falling 8-2 to rival Louisville at Jim Patterson Stadium.
The Cats began the five-game road trip with a victory at Western Carolina, then took two of three games from Georgia for their second straight Southeastern Conference series win before finishing up in Louisville. With the loss, the Cats split the season series with the Cardinals (25-11) for the second year in a row. They topped U of L 8-5 in Lexington back on April 3.
