Gavin Williams does it again! This is his fifth consecutive game with 10+ Ks & 1 or fewer BB, joining Clayton Kershaw (6 in 2016) and Chris Sale (5 in 2018) as the only pitchers in MLB history to record such a streak ⚾️

Lee Ellis is back in the SEC and "looks the part of someone ready to be a catalyst in the conference" ⚡️ The Ohio State transfer – who began his career at South Carolina – brings versatility, speed and experience to @UKBaseball. 🔗 d1ba.se/4wn2Y4M

After pulling his name from this year's draft, Hudson Brown is back with @UKBaseball for the 2027 season. A 14% walk rate, 109 90th EV, and a 90% in-zone contact rate make up a very polished lefty bat profile. He cracks our T100 '27 college board👇
