Razorbacks sweep Alabama-Birmingham, giving up just one run in three games

Arkansas entered the weekend having lost three of four. The Hogs took all three from UAB, giving up just one run.

The Arkansas softball team entered the weekend having lost three of its last four games, including falling to Central Arkansas for a second time on the season.

Alabama-Birmingham proved just the cure.

The Razorbacks took all three games on the weekend against UAB, including Sunday’s 6-0 capper over the Blazers. In all, Arkansas outscored UAB, 22-1. The Hogs host Texas A&M-Commerce on Tuesday before getting back into SEC play on the weeked against Kentucky in Lexington.

Raigan Kramer hit a three-run home run in the fourth and Rylin Hedgecock added a solo shot in the fifth. On the other side, Arkansas pitchers Calli Turner and Nikki McGaffin allowed just one hit and didn’t walk a batter while striking out seven.

Fifteen games into SEC play, the Razorbacks find themselves in a tie for fourth at 9-6. They’re one game back of second-place Georgia alongside Alabama and Auburn.

First pitch on Tuesday is at 4 p.m.
