After missing the last three weeks with a shoulder injury, Jace Bohrofen is back in the lineup as the starting designated hitter. It's the third straight game slumping slugger Brady Slavens hasn't started.

B-2nd: Arkansas 6, Mississippi State 0

Jalen Battles got all of the first pitch he saw, crushing a two-run bomb into the Hog Pen to start the scoring.

Later in the inning, the Razorbacks staged a two-out rally. After an infield single by Cayden Wallace and walk by Peyton Stovall, Michael Turner and Chris Lanzilli hit back-to-back RBI singles to double the lead.

Robert Moore followed with a triple that drove in two more runs.

B-3rd: Arkansas 7, Mississippi State 0

Battles thought he had a double down the left field line, but it was called foul. Instead, he hit his second home run of the game.

T-4th: Arkansas 7, Mississippi State 1

The Bulldogs get on the board via a solo home run by Logan Tanner. It's the first home run Connor Noland has allowed this season.

B-7th: Arkansas 8, Mississippi State 1
