[B]The UK baseball team notched its 30th win last night[/B] with a 6-3 road victory over Murray State in the final non-conference game of the 2010 regular season.

Kentucky (30-23) picked up a nice start from sophomore Joe Devine, who pitched a career-high 5.1 innings for the win.

Chris Bisson led the Cats offensively with a 2-5 night. Shortstop Taylor Black banged a two-run double in the ninth.
