Since the head-scratching midweek loss to North Alabama on April 2, Ole Miss baseball has rattled off four straight wins and welcomes the scuffling Kentucky Wildcats to town this weekend.
Kentucky comes to Oxford fresh off a series loss at the hands of the Missouri Tigers. The Wildcats sit at 2-10 in conference play — last place in the SEC.
Ole Miss, on the other hand, swept Florida last weekend and pummeled Southern Miss on Tuesday to return to the national spotlight and reignite discussions about the Rebels’ hopes for hosting a regional tournament this summer.
In the four games since the loss to North Alabama, Ole Miss has scored 51 runs on 58 hits and is currently in a three-way tie for first place in the SEC West with Arkansas and LSU.
