Kentucky Baseball (19-3 4-0 SEC) outlasted the Missouri Tigers (9-13 0-4 SEC) by a score of 9-4 in 11 innings on Friday.

Ryan Waldschmidt wasted no time getting the offense started as he singled on the first pitch of the game and, before long, the Cats had loaded the bases with Emilien Pitre and Devin Burkes.

Nick Lopez hit a grounder to Missouri starter Logan Lunceford, who managed to turn the double play.

In danger of spoiling the bases-loaded, no-out scenario, Mitchell Daly stepped up to plate and singled up the middle to score both Pitre and Burkes to give the Cats a 2-0 lead.
