Pregame Stuff
First pitch was originally scheduled for 6 p.m., but it was moved up an hour because rain and thunderstorms are expected to move into the area Friday night.
The only change in Arkansas' starting lineup is that Robert Moore and Braydon Webb swapped spots in the order. LSU is starting a new catcher in Tyler McManus, with Hayden Travinski getting the start at designated hitter.
B-3rd: Arkansas 3, LSU 0
Arkansas opens the scoring with a leadoff home run from Zack Gregory, his fifth long ball of the year.
With two outs in the inning, and after Brady Slavens drew a walk, Chris Lanzilli went opposite field as well. His was a two-run bomb that landed in the left field bullpen.
B-5th: Arkansas 4, LSU 0
Chris Lanzilli joins the fun with a two-out solo home run. It looked like it might be a a fly out, but it got up in the wind and carried out of the park.
