The Kentucky Wildcats softball team has been playing well lately. After dropping three games to LSU, they won six out of seven games. On Friday, they began a three game series with the Florida Gators.
Game one of the series did not go well for the Wildcats. Florida scored a run early, then Kentucky took a 2 – 1 lead in the top of the third. In the bottom of the third, though, Florida scored nine runs to blow it open. They would ultimately win 10 – 2.
Jenna Blanton had two hits for Kentucky, while Ally Hutchins had their lone RBI. The Cats had just five hits on the day.
Florida, meanwhile, had two players in Reagan Walsh and Korbe Otis who drove in four runs apiece. The game was called after five innings as the run rule was invoked.
Kentucky and Florida meet again on Saturday. The game is at 3:00 PM and can be viewed on SEC Network+.
