The University of Kentucky Bat Cats are off to another hot start in 2010. UK is currently 6-0 on the season with wins over Virginia Tech, West Virginia, and Coastal Carolina to go along with a sweep of Bowling Green.
Keenan Wiley, Chris Bisson, and Chad Wright lead the Cats at the plate. Each has over a .350 batting average, 5 RBI, and a home run. Wiley is also slugging over .700 with a mammoth OPS of 1.206 in the early going. Taylor Rogers and Alex Meyer are both 2-0 on the mound this season. Rogers has an anemic 0.66 ERA over 13.2 innings. Meyer has a strong 14/4 strikeout to walk ratio and has given up the lone home run against Kentucky pitching this year.
Kentucky hosts Morehead State Tuesday before taking a West Coast swing. The Cats will play San Diego State, San Diego, and Monmouth in San Diego this weekend. They'll have three series at home before starting conference play in mid March. That's when the real schedule starts and when everyone will see if this team has the talent to make a run in the postseason.
