    Louisville baseball proves it's still a cut above the Cats
    Nick Mingione got it right Thursday, the day before Kentucky traveled to Louisville to play the Cardinals for a trip to the College World Series. “Brutal honesty,” said the UK coach when asked about UK’s opponent, “Their program is in a different place than ours.” Friday and Saturday, Louisville proved it.
