Ole Miss quickly back up 4-3. Nobody on and one out.

[poodoo]

I, too, am planning on staying up for the entire game tonight, WildcatRick. :icon_biggrin: By the way, WildcatRick was surely a faithful fan last night, folks. :icon_biggrin: I'll let him continue to do the reports tonight.

[WildcatRick]

Sorry, I was called away by an unhappy WCNer on IM.

Cats just tied the game on an RBI single by Wiley.

[poodoo]

Dang! A two-run homer gives Ole Miss the win. :icon_sad: It's on to later today against Alabama again.

[supertroy18]

Especially with how resilient the Cats were tonight in coming back so often. This one hurts. Alabama will be waiting for us with baited breath. I really hope this was just a setback. I still think this team has some potential to do some great things. Ole Miss and LSU are playing GREAT ball at the moment. Paxton, Albers and Green were a little disappointing tonight. We still have a chance though.

DANG!! :mad:

DANG!! :mad:
yeah DANG!!!:mad:

It was indeed a heartbreaker after all the comebacks and having taken the lead in the ninth. I couldn't go to sleep AND kept thinking of the game's ending after dozing a bit from time to time. I think that's the most my heart had been involved in a UK baseball game. Too, we had seemed perfectly set up for the tourney AND for hosting a regional. :icon_sad:

Although it's really the same day, it's a new day in that they must compete again tonight and get themselves in that good position again. Here's hoping they can bounce back from such a heartbreaker. GO BAT CATS!

[UedK]

I stayed up and listened to it and was so far from thinking we'd loose on a walk off home run it really hit me. I can't imagine how hard it hit the team. That's baseball though, Cats are still alive. They sort of exploded against Bama on Wednesday, lets hope for another Cat explosion tonight.

[TrueblueCATfan]

sounds like a heartbreaker...........but the BATCATS should still get a bid into the NCAA tourney..right?????????????

[supertroy18]

Yeah, the bid should still happen I think. I have heard that 40 wins in collegiate baseball is usually the parameter that the NCAA uses. UK is way up there in wins now, with 44 or so, I think. I saw that they are also in the running for hosting a regional. Ga. was the #8 national projected seed on ESPN, so I imagine that there is a lot of room to move up in there if we can get this thing going in the right direction. I think last night was the most I have hurt over a UK baseball game too. (The U of L loss was tough this season though.) I think they bouce back pretty well tonight. They beat Bama and get Ole Miss tomorrow and they will be in good shape and will be itching to get a little revenge on the Rebs...hopefully.

* Side note-My optimism when it comes to UK is always so overwhelming. I just assume they will win every game the rest of the season after a loss...in every sport. It's a sickness that I hope never gets remedied. :)

[supertroy18]

Vandy leads SC 4-1 in the top of the seventh. LSU awaits winner tomorrow. Winner would have to beat the Tigers twice tomorrow to make the Champ game. I see LSU versus winner of Ole Miss and UK on Sunday. We would have to beat the Rebs twice tomorrow if we win tonight, and I say that doesn't seem too tough seeing how we did it just a week ago in taking two of three at home. Although, listening last night, it sounded like a LOT of Ole Miss fans made the trip to Hoover. I was a little surprised seeing as how I didn't hear as many Bama fans the night before.

[lextownboi]

r any of these games going to be on tv?
