We are underway on a gorgeous Monday night at Kentucky Proud Park. Follow along here for live updates on the Cats and Hoosiers… #BBN 
Leadoff single by Glasser, double into the RCF gap by Whalen gives Indiana a quick 1-0 lead, T1.
Mason Moore dispatched early to the UK bullpen tonight.
Williams gets out of the first with minimal damage, strands an IU runner at third.
Cats coming to the plate for the first time tonight, trailing 1-0.

Cats load the bases with no outs. Hoosier starter struggling mightily with control. Pitre hits sac-fly to CF to score Jackson Gray and tie us up at 1-1, B1.
Gilliam follows with sac-fly to RF to make it 2-1 Kentucky, B1
End of 1: Kentucky 2, Indiana 1
Hoosiers return the favor, load the bases with no outs in T2. Williams has been laboring, and contact against him has been hard. Mason Moore jogs down to the UK bullpen again.
Cats 1/3 of the way out of it as IU hitter bounces into 5-2 putout at home.
Cats nearly turn 2 to get out of it, but it’s an RBI groundout for IU’s Glasser to tie it up at 2-2. T2
Cats work out of the inning with only one run coming across. Both teams have been a little fortunate so far in the bases-loaded, no outs scenarios.
End of 2: Kentucky 2, Indiana 2
Wind has picked up a bit, blowing hard from LF to RF.
Hoosiers have put the leadoff man on base 3x in as many innings. Strong blueprint for success. This time, it’s because UK CF Gray loses pop fly in the setting sun behind KPP and it turns into a double.
Williams works out of it unscathed by retiring the next three batters to strand IU runner at 3rd. We’re still tied, 2-2, M3
End of 3: Kentucky 2, Indiana 2
IU puts the leadoff man on for the 4th straight inning.
Williams works around leadoff trouble again, thanks to a sweet sliding catch by Nolan McCarthy in RF on a sinking liner for the third out.
End of 4: Kentucky 2, Indiana 2
Cats sitting on just one hit thru 4. Soft-tossing LHPs have been an issue at times for them this season, and IU’s starter has kept them off-balance so far. Be in UK’s interests to work some counts in the 5th and get him out of this game.

Mason Moore takes over on mound for UK in T5
5th straight inning, IU leadoff man reaches, this time on an infield single off diving Gilliam’s glove at first.
And Moore quickly rolls a 4-6-3 double play to erase the runner.
Only six pitches needed for Moore to retire Hoosiers in T5
End of 5: Kentucky 2, Indiana 2
Cats strand a runner at first after Gray is hit by a pitch. Felker lines one deep into the RF corner, but Hoosier RF tracks it down near the foul line.

Scoreless T6 for UK’s Mason Moore. Hoosiers leave a runner at second.
Leadoff double by Kentucky’s Devin Burkes to begin B6
After Pitre moves runner over with ground ball to right side, Hunter Gilliam doubled down the LF line in almost a copy of Burkes’ shot to make it 3-2 Kentucky, B6
KPP is rocking. That was a shot of excitement they’ve been looking for since the 1st inning.
IU’s Bothwell going thru the order for the third time today. Cats may have him gauged a little better.
Waldschmidt doubles off the wall in RCF, just misses a three-run HR, but Cats extend lead to 4-2 and gave runners at second and third with one out.
Infield pop-up and strikeout get Hoosiers out of further damage.
End of 6: Kentucky 4, Indiana 2

New KPP record crowd of 6,796
IU puts first two runners on base in T7. Sacrifice bunt moves them over into scoring position. Moore comes up with a strikeout and ground ball to second (nice play by Pitre in the hole) to get out of it unscathed.
End of 7: Kentucky 4, Indiana 2
Cats strand a runner at second. Would have been some nice insurance to avoid the bloop-and-blast scenario to tie it.

End of 8: Kentucky 4, Indiana 2
Hoosiers coming to the plate down to their final three outs in the Lexington Regional championship.

Moore fans the leadoff hitter.
Fly ball out for No. 2. Cats one out away...
And it's one tough out to contend with. IU's Glasser, who has two hits tonight and has been an on-base machine in this regional.
Glasser delivers a line-drive single to CF. Heckuva player for IU.
FINAL: Kentucky 4, Indiana 2
