LSU infielder Seth Dardar delivered a clutch home run in the bottom of the eighth inning, helping the Tigers rally from a 7-0 deficit to defeat Kentucky 17-10.
The 11-10 lead at the time was secured when Dardar launched a shot to right field. He flipped his bat sky-high in celebration.
LSU's comeback began after a sluggish start, and the bullpen held strong afterward.
Dardar, who transferred to LSU in 2026 after stints at Kansas State and Columbia, went 3-for-5 with a double, home run, and four RBIs.
The win improved LSU’s record to 19-10 and 4-5 in SEC play, while Kentucky dropped to 21-6 and 5-4.
LSU head coach Jay Johnson praised his team’s resilience.
