Kentucky vs. Florida Baseball Prediction

The Kentucky Wildcats have been one of the best programs in all of college baseball and despite the one-run game on Friday, they are going to be the favorites to win. The Gators struggled on Friday as Pierce Coppola pitched 2.2 innings while the Wildcats had Trey Pooser pitch six innings of work.

If Kentucky is able to pitch to first baseman Jac Caglianone and limit his production, that would be massive.

Florida is a .500 team and they are not going to be consistent in games. Dominic Niman has proven to be an overall better pitcher than Liam Peterson has been this year. With the regular season ending very soon, this game is going to help them solidify their standing in the Southeastern Conference.

Kentucky is the better team in every sense of the word and should be able to quiet down Florida's bats enough to pick up another win on the road.
