Pregame Notes
Dave Van Horn is sticking with his usual lineup for the most part, but Jacob Nesbit is starting at third base for Cullen Smith and batting ninth. Zack Gregory got the nod in left field.
B-1st: Arkansas 1, Little Rock 0
With two outs in the bottom of the first, Cayden Wallace got Arkansas on the board with a solo home run, his seventh of the season.
B-2nd: Arkansas 3, Little Rock 0
Jalen Battles poked a single the other way for an RBI single that doubled Arkansas' lead. With the bases loaded, Robert Moore lined out to center, but it was deep enough to be a sacrifice fly.
B-3rd: Arkansas 4, Little Rock 0
Christian Franklin's second double of the game drives in Brady Slavens from first for an RBI.
T-5th: Arkansas 4, Little Rock 2
After a couple of quick outs, Kole Ramage allowed a hit by pitch and single. Both of them ended up scoring on John Michael Russ' double down the first base line.
B-7th: Arkansas 5, Little Rock 2
With runners on the corners, Arkansas gets an insurance run thanks to a wild pitch.
B-8th: Arkansas 7, Little Rock 2
Jacob Nesbit delivers another insurance run on an RBI single into right-center. That also put runners on the corners and set up Moore's RBI fielder's choice.
