What there not telling you is that UK had their fifth best pitcher in their rotation throw against Lville both times.
Against a good starter for UK, it would have been a completely different game.

It's apparent that many of you do not understand how pitching decisions are made at the college level. This is not high school any more. A midweek game in the big scheme of things means absolutely nothing in college. That's right , not even against an instate rival like Louisville.


Every team does this same thing. Louisville is not going to throw one of their aces in a weekday game with a conference series looming a couple of days away either. I guarantee that Louisville did not throw a conference starter in this game. You might staff a midweek game out to allow your pitchers to retain an edge, but you simply do not burn conference starters in midweek games.
