With the 5-3 win yesterday, Arkansas completed the sweep of Murray State.
The midweek game against Grambling State turned out to be a great confidence boost for Arkansas’ batters. They batted an average of .294 versus the Racers, scoring 21 total runs.
Arkansas has struggled with stranding runners, but this weekend, the Hogs only left 19 runners on bases. Compared to last weekend, when they left 31 on bases, 19 is a tremendous step forward.
Yet again, the Razorback bullpen performed amazingly. It’s almost become boring… almost.
Diamond Hog pitchers combined for 13 hits, 5 earned runs, and—in the least surprising stat of the day—50 strikeouts against 100 batters faced. Even more impressive, though, is they did it with 9 total pitchers.
Overall, the Hogs were completely dominant. With less than two weeks to go, Arkansas looks to be in a prime position to start SEC play. Here, we’ll cover some key stats that made their performance so domineering.
