Since sweeping the Alabama Crimson Tide to start SEC play, the Kentucky Wildcats baseball team has struggled. Against conference opponents, they've gone 2-5 coming into Saturday's game two against Missouri, and needing a win. Luckily, they would get it.

Tyler Bell got them off on the right foot with a two-run homerun in the first inning. Then, in the third, they scored five more runs, mostly off a Scott Campbell Jr. grand slam. They'd go on to win it 9-2.

Campbell had the game's biggest blow, but Bell also had a very good game, with two hits, two runs, and two RBIs. Jayce Tharnish also continues to hit the ball well, and had three more hits in this one. Luke Lawrence added two hits as well.

Nate Harris got the start and picked up his fourth win by going five innings and giving up just five hits and two runs. The bullpen dominated the rest of the way, going four innings and giving up just two hits.

The two teams will decide the series on Sunday, with Kentucky needing a win. The game will start at 1:00 P.M. ET.
