The Rebels are welcoming the #15 Kentucky Wildcats to Swayze this weekend where Ole Miss just so happens to be 15-0.
After dropping the last two games of the series on the road against second ranked Texas, Ole Miss bounced back on Tuesday, knocking off Austin Peay 9-5. The biggest storyline for Ole Miss as conference play ramps up is around their Saturday starter, Cade Townsend, who left his start early against Texas with shoulder discomfort. He will be fine in the long run, but as of now, the pitcher for Friday’s game is listed as TBD.
PROJECTED PITCHING MATCHUPS Thursday: LHP Hunter Elliott (2-0, 4. 38 ERA) vs. LHP Ben Cleaver (1-0, 1.
84 ERA) Friday: TBA vs. RHP Jaxon Jelkin (4-0, 3. 38 ERA) Saturday: LHP Wil Libbert (2-2, 5.
96 ERA) vs. RHP Nate Harris (3-1, 4. 03 ERA) Hunter Elliott will hopefully round into his ace form soon and the Rebs will need it tonight as they take on the Cats’ ace in Ben Cleaver.
