[CATHYnKY]

Yep. Can't listen continuously since I am at work, but will try and check on info often.

GO BATCATS!!!!!

[CATHYnKY]

Thanks Larry. I'm be checking often!!!!

[Wildcat Larry]

The game's started but the stats haven't. What's up with that? :?

[ukbob]

USC with a hit, but UK recovers to ge the final out.

0-0, UK up to bat!!!

[Wildcat Larry]

USC gets one hits, but doesn't threat in the top of the first. Cats coming to bat.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

Wonder why the live stat link hasn't initiated yet ?

[Wildcat Larry]

Anybody getting Live Stats? Not working for me. Wake up, SEC.

[Wildcat Larry]

UK had one player hit by pitch, but nothing else in bottom of 1st.

0-0 after 1.

[Wildcat Larry]

Live Stats now up. :thumbup

[Wildcat Larry]

3 up, 3 down for USC in the top of the 2nd.

0-0

hopefully they get it up and running soon :shrug:

[Wildcat Larry]

Two base error on UK, but it goes for naught. USC doesn't score.

0-0 after 2 1/2.

[WildcatRick]

TERRIBLE call on the error, DeJesus had the ball in control for two full steps. Luckily it didnt hurt us.

[WildcatRick]

Lehmann drives one to the warning track, just short of the wall. Near miss.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 3 innings.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 3 1/2 innings.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

I was hoping to jump on the freshman early and shake his confidence some.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

STATS ARE BACK UP :dude:

0-0 after 4 innings.

[KyWildcats7]

is there no live audio for this anywhere?

[Wildcat Larry]

This USC pitcher is 5-4 for the season. That Cats need to jump on this guy with some heavy bats. C'mon Cats.

Go to the UKAA website (www.ukathletics.com (http://www.ukathletics.com)) and click on audio in the current events box on the right.

[WildcatRick]

Great catch by DeJesus takes a homer away from USC.:thumbup

[WildcatRick]

No score going to the bottom of the 5th

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 4 1/2. All three outs by DeJesus in centerfield.

[Wildcat Larry]

Only 3 hits (2 by USC and 1 by UK) in this game halfway through the game. Time to wake up the bats, Cats.

[WildcatRick]

No score through 5.

Shelby struck out on a pitch over his head. That 5-4 pitcher is throwing BB's.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after five innings.

[bamacat]

Is game on Dish network?

[WildcatRick]

[bamacat]

Channel please

[Wildcat Larry]

I think CSS is only on cable and not on any satellites.

[WildcatRick]

Here is a link to their site, not sure who all carries it. I am on Comcast cable.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 5 1/2 innings. Still only 3 hits between the two teams.

[WildcatRick]

Leadoff hit by Wilkes, his 2nd hit.

Sac bunt by Lehmann.

Pop out by DeJesus. 2 down runner on 2nd.

[WildcatRick]

Scoreless to the 7th.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 6 innings.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

both bullpens are warming up now

[Wildcat Larry]

Funny, the lowest scoring game in the regular season between these two games was a 9-8 UK win. :shrug:

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

after I was thinking about what good defense we were playing today after the catch by Lehmann, we get a throwing error to 1st. With two outs hopefully this one will not haunt us either.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

wild pitch, getting sloppy now.

[Wildcat Larry]

Wild pitch sends the USC runner to 2nd base. Three errors for the Cats at this point. :?

[WildcatRick]

0-0, Cats coming to bat in the bottom of the 7th.

[Wildcat Larry]

0-0 after 6 1/2 innings. :)

2 errors, wild pitch does not count as an error.

[WildcatRick]

HR Cats up 1-0, by Coughlin.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

Coughlin cranked one !

[Wildcat Larry]

:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:t humbup

Sean Coughlin!

[I. Melvin]

Thanks for the updates, guys!

Can't get to a TV right now and am dying to know how we're doing.

[WildcatRick]

1-0 after 7 innings.

[WildcatRick]

The CSS announcers said Georgia may be the hottest team in the NCAA(with Clemson), but that UK's pitching is setup to win this tourney after today.

[WildcatRick]

1-0 going to the bottom of the 8th, Cats coming to bat.

Warnerpitching very well.

[WildcatRick]

Great play by Wilkes to end their half. What an arm!!

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

SEC player of the Year comes up big on defense, SC done in the 8th !!

[Wildcat Larry]

Go Cats!

[Wildcat Larry]

Grace on with a wild pitch on a 3rd strike that rolled into the dugout.

[WildcatRick]

Billy Grace strikes out, but reaches first when ball gets away from USC catcher.

[WildcatRick]

Grace sacrificed over.

[Wildcat Larry]

Sacrifice bunt, Grace on 2nd with one out.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

It would be nice to get atleast one insurance run here.

[Wildcat Larry]

I think we're in parallel universes, Rick. :lol:

[WildcatRick]

Stereo.:thumbup

[trublu]

Guys, thank you for the updates.
GO CATS!!!

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

runner 90 ft away now on wild pitch

[WildcatRick]

Two down, runner on 3rd.

[Wildcat Larry]

Grace to third on a wild pitch. Need a hit here with two outs.

[Wildcat Larry]

How about a suicide squeeze? :lol:

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

with two out :shock:

[WildcatRick]

3 outs away from the win.

[Wildcat Larry]

Cats need to bear down and get USC out quickly.

[ukbob]

Let's get 3 up...3 down.

GO CATS!!!

[Wildcat Larry]

Gotta throw strikes.

[Wildcat Larry]

C'mon Cats, it's time to go to lunch. :cool::D

[WildcatRick]

Leadoff hit for USC.

[Wildcat Larry]

One on, nobody out, expect a sacrifice bunt.

[Littlemeyer]

Just setting up the double play...:thumbup two outs for the price of one!

[WildcatRick]

Pop out, one down

[CATHYnKY]

I'm leaving here around 2. I thought for sure I'd have to miss the last inning or so. With no runs in the 1st innings, looks like I'll make the end. BTW, eating at my desk.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

I wonder if we will see Dombrowski or Snipp at all during the SEC tourney, or if they will be rested for the NCAA tourney.

[Wildcat Larry]

Interesting, no bunt, one out, runner still on first.

[WildcatRick]

USC up 2-1 on homerun

[Wildcat Larry]

Ouch.

[Will Lavender]

:shock:

[ukbob]

So much for that. CRAP :(

[Littlemeyer]

D'oh!

[Littlemeyer]

Who's due up in the bottom half of the inning?

[Wildcat Larry]

May have stayed with Warner too long. Second guessing, but might have wanted to go to the bullpen for the 9th.

[Will Lavender]

Homer was of the pinch hit variety.

That's what you call a clutch hit for the Cocks.

Dangit!

[WildcatRick]

The guy that homered only had 41 AB's all year:thumbdown

[Wildcat Larry]

Littlemeyer wrote: Who's due up in the bottom half of the inning?
Cowgill, Coughlin and Strieby.

Is this the curse of the Bear coming into effect? :shock:

[ukbob]

WildcatRick wrote: The guy that homered only had 41 AB's all year:thumbdown

But with 7 homers. Not too bad.

Hope they go to their pen. We had no luck withtheir starter really.

[Wildcat Larry]

Falling apart. Lack of experience is hurting here. Runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out. :(

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

We really need to hold them at 2-1, and not give up a huge innning

[ukbob]

USC primed to blow it open. :thumbdown

[Will Lavender]

Bases loaded and 1 out?

[Russ24ky]

Was the South Carolina batter who hit the Home Run named Latteneer?

:shock::shrug:

[Wildcat Larry]

UK bats have been asleep for the last week. The offense has carried them often, but it hasn't been there in the Georgia series or in this game.

At least this is a double elimination.

[CATHYnKY]

Can't get the live stats now :(

[ukbob]

3-1...2 out. :(

[Wildcat Larry]

Was it a good call Rick, or should it have been a double play?

[Wildcat Larry]

4-1 two out.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

Barring a miracle, looks like we will be playing in the losers bracket tomorrow.

[Will Lavender]

Okay. We need 4 to win.

Come on, Cats!

At 11:00 am just like today. Probably against Vandy as I expect Georgia to beat them. Hope the team doesn't get too down about this.

Of course, there's still hope as of right now. :)

[Wildcat Larry]

4-2, homer for Cowgill.

Got to get the tying run at the plate now.

[Wildcat Larry]

One out.

[Wildcat Larry]

Strieby gets a hit. One on, one out.

[Littlemeyer]

:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup

Tying run at the plate, no?

[Will Lavender]

Tying run up!

Come on Bertram!

[Wildcat Larry]

Bertram walks, two on, one out. Shelby up.

[Littlemeyer]

:thumbup Come on, SHELBY!

[ukbob]

C'mon Shelby...END THIS THING RIGHT NOW!!!!

[Wildcat Larry]

Shelby walks, bases loaded, one out.

[Wildcat Larry]

Billy Grace is up.

[Wildcat Larry]

Grace strikes out, two out.

[Wildcat Larry]

Wilkes flies out, UK loses 4-2. :thumbdown:(

[Littlemeyer]

:(

We'll get 'em tomorrow.

[BOURBON TOWN CAT FAN]

Nice try, a little short.

[Wildcat Larry]

Unfortunately, the Cats lack tournament experience and that showed today. Hopefully, they'll learn from this and move forward. There's still a lot of baseball to play this season.

You bet there is. They WILL regroup. Go CATS!!

[poodoo]

Oh, no. I had just logged on and was so hoping that wehad comethrough with Shelby up and then with the bases loaded. Too, I agree that the lack of tournament experience may have hurt us. Here's hoping for sucess tomorrow!
