Got a guess? Check below for the answer!

🔵 ONE BIG THING

Did You Know? Last Saturday, before Kentucky took on ISU, Mason Moore was so physically ill that he needed medical attention from the UK trainers. Moore had a stomach bug and was being pumped with IVs so that he could recover to play. And he did just that. Moore pitched on Sunday and threw six shutout innings, only allowing four hits, three walks and he struck out six batters.
