‘Hawks’ seven-run inning can’t beat No. 6 UK

When a team scores seven runs in a game, it usually goes on to win. When it scores seven runs in one inning, the odds of winning go up even higher.

That wasn’t the case for the Miami baseball team (13-8, 2-1 MAC) on Tuesday, as it scored seven runs in the top of the seventh inning, only to fall to the sixth-ranked Kentucky Wildcats 13-7.

The high-scoring contest started out fairly quiet as neither team scored in the first two innings.

Kentucky (18-7, 2-4 SEC) kicked off the scoring in the bottom half of the third, when junior left fielder Tristan Pompey lined an RBI double into the left-field corner.
