Just when they thought their beloved Mountaineers’ season was coming to an end, WVU baseball fans, including those in attendance at Kendrick Family Ballpark, were treated to an epic ninth inning rally. West Virginia scored five in the ninth, with runs scored via a walk, a balk and a home run, to beat Kentucky 11-9 and force a Morgantown Regional Final on Monday.

One of the best sporting events I’ve watched all year. WVU down 3 going into 9th. Scored 5. Morgantown went bananas. Tarps off everywhere. FYI-West Virginia’s best player is Gavin Kelly. Central Catholic. From Pittsburgh. Will be #1 pick in ‘27 MLB Draft. pic.twitter.com/m3AT48jB2S
