The No. 10 Florida softball team shined under the Friday night lights in the midst of a rainy spell.
In yet another run-rule victory, the Gators (27-4, 3-1 SEC) bested the No. 23 Kentucky Wildcats with a final score of 10-2.
All runs came through the first three frames for the Gators, while Kentucky’s pair came in the top of the third.
Unfortunately for the Wildcats (20-9, 0-4 SEC), the Gators responded with a nine-run inning in response.
The highlight of the evening was Reagan Walsh’s grand slam that came in the third inning.
In her 11th home run of the season, Walsh broke the 2-2 tie to give the Gators a 6-2 lead.
After the grand slam, Ariel Kowalewski and Mia Williams hit back-to-back solo shots.
Leading with Walsh, Korbe Otis recorded four RBI too. Hers came on three singles to score four runners.
In the circle, Keagan Rothrock remained composed against a top-25 team.
She finished with one earned run, five hits and seven strikeouts through her complete game performance through five.
The Gators will look to take the series Saturday at 3 p.m. against the Wildcats.
