UofL's pitchers average 6 walks a game. The NCAA keeps stats on 299 baseball teams. In the statistical category of Walks Allowed Per Innings, UofL ranks 248th in that regard. There are 51 teams that walk more hitters than UofL, only two of which are from P5 conferences, Mizzou and Ohio State.

The Cards have walked 224 batters. That's worse in the ACC by a good margin. Wake is next up. They've walked 205 batters. Since the Noles are this weekend, they have walked 163 batters.

If I were a coach of an opposing team, I'd tell my guys to not lift the bat off their shoulders when playing Louisville, and to give the green light on every 3-0 pitch.

Last year, the Cards walked 235 batters while hitting them 57 times. Cards are currently at 224 and 50 with 15 games to go. We'll smoke those '24 numbers.

Oh, I'll take the under. I'll say 29 walks.
