WATCH: Nick Mingione, Tyler Bell recap Kentucky's tough loss to West Virginia

Kentucky held a 9-6 lead entering the ninth inning on Sunday night in Morgantown. The Wildcats were three outs away from claiming a regional title. Nick Mingione’s team left the field with an 11-9 loss. That sets the stage for another rubber match in what has been a season of rubber match games.

I thought our bullpen did a great job trying to keep us in that game. Obviously, the first inning didn’t go the way we wanted. I thought Ira Austin did an incredible job to get us out of that jam. Tommy (Skelding) got us some big outs. Chase Alderman was fantastic. Got us seven outs, I thought it was good. And then Nile (Adcock). Man, he wanted it. I’m sick to my stomach for him. He pitched so good. Give them (West Virginia) credit. They had a great comeback, a great comeback.”

Mingione and start shortstop Tyler Bell discussed the tough loss, what happens next, and how Kentucky will bounce-back on Monday. Smash that play button.
