It was a tough day for the Diamond Hogs in the series opener against Alabama.
The Crimson Tide took Game 1 with a 12-1 victory thanks to 22 hits at the plate. Arkansas starter Hunter Hollan caught the bulk of the onslaught, giving up three home runs, ten hits, and seven earned runs in four innings of work.
Drew Williamson, William Hamiter, Mac Guscette, and Colby Shelton were the three Alabama players to go yard in Baum Walker Stadium.
This win ends the Razorbacks’ 15-game home win streak, which stood as the longest since 1997. Game 2 will be crucial because Alabama can leapfrog the Diamond Hogs for second place in the SEC West division.
