He clobbered a home run to right field to give LSU an 11-10 lead at the time. As he knew he got all of it, Dardar flipped his bat high into the air to put the exclamation point on the dinger.

LSU was down 7-0 going into the bottom of the third inning before they went on the comeback trail. The Tigers got the deficit down to within one run before Kentucky added three more runs in the fifth inning.

But after Dardar’s homer, LSU’s bullpen buckled down and didn’t give up any more runs.

LSU won the game, 17-10, and took the series against Kentucky.

"Even down 7-0, our players were confident they were going to come back in this game," LSU head coach Jay Johnson said after the game, via the school’s website. "I’m very proud of the way they competed; they gave their all throughout the game and earned a great victory."

Dardar, who played at Kansas State and Columbia before transferring to LSU for the 2026 season, was 3-for-5 with a double, home run and four RBI.
