Preseason All-American Collin Cowgill homered twice and Sawyer Carroll added his fourth homer of the season, as the No. 17 Kentucky baseball team put the finishing touches on a sweep of a doubleheader with Butler, routing the Bulldogs 21-2, on Saturday evening at Cliff Hagan Stadium.
Cowgill, a former Kentucky High School Mr. Baseball, boosted a homer in his first at bat of the game, a two-RBI jack and later in the fifth inning, sending a solo shot soaring over the videoboard high atop the fence in left-center field. The junior centerfielder and Lexington native finished the second game 3-for-4 with four RBI and three runs.
In three games so far with Butler (0-3), UK has outscored the Bulldogs 49-3.
Carroll, one of three Wildcats on the Brooks Wallace National Player of the Year Watch List, also added a 3-for-4 day, with four RBI to complement his three-run homer in the fifth inning. In just eight games, Carroll has driven in a squad-best 20 RBI. Leadoff man Keenan Wiley continued a stellar pace this season, batting 3-for-5 with a team-best five RBI.
