  • New York Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte fumbles with the ball after giving up an infield hit with the bases loaded to New York Mets Luis Castillo during the fourth inning in Major League Baseball action Saturday, May 17, 2008 at Yankee Stadium in New York.

    Santana pitches Mets to 7-4 victory over Yankees

    By MIKE FITZPATRICK

    AP Baseball Writer

    Johan Santana gave the New York Yankees a firsthand look at the legitimate ace they turned down last winter. The two-time Cy Young Award winner pitched efficiently into the eighth inning, and the Mets got home runs from Jose Reyes and David Wright to top the Yankees 7-4 Saturday in the opener of a rain-shortened Subway Series.

    KENTUCKY 9, MISSISSIPPI 0

    By Mark Maloney

    The Cats are in. James Paxton twirled a complete-game shutout Friday night as Kentucky blanked Mississippi 9-0 and clinched a spot in next week's Southeastern Conference tournament. The Cats almost certainly will receive an NCAA Tournament bid, too.

    AARON BOYD SAYS HE EXPECTS TO START AGAINST LOUISVILLE

    By Chip Cosby

    Jared Lorenzen admitted to being shocked when he heard that the New York Giants had selected his former teammate, Andre Woodson, in the sixth round of the NFL Draft two weekends ago. The selection of Woodson gave the Giants five quarterbacks to work with. Most NFL teams keep only three.

  • Cats have luck and skill on their side

    By John Clay

    A year ago, they were left at home. No SEC Tournament. No NCAA Tournament. This year, they can pack their bags. Kentucky saw to that last night. With a vengeance. James Paxton pitched the deepest and best game of his life, nine innings, no runs allowed.

    By Mark Story

    In the spring of 2001, I happened to call a friend who then worked in Ashland. During the course of the conversation, he mentioned in passing that he had just seen the best high school basketball player in the state of Kentucky.

    Kentucky's best-ever major-league pitcher?

    By Mike Fields

    Kentucky high school baseball should be proud of itself for producing Brandon Webb, arguably the best pitcher in the major leagues today. Long before he was the ace of the Arizona Diamondbacks, he was the ace of the Ashland Blazer Tomcats.
