That didn’t go quite as planned for the Arkansas baseball team.
The Crimson Tide rolled up 22 hits, including four home runs against Arkansas pitching. The home team chased starter Hunter Hollan after just four innings in which he gave up 10 hits, three homers and seven runs, all earned.
Meanwhile, the Razorbacks’ lineup had zero luck, managing just two hits in the nine innings. Tavian Josenberger’s solo home run in the third tied things for Arkansas before it fell apart.
Alabama scored three runs in the fourth, five in the fifth, one in the seventh and two in the ninth to seal things.
The teams are scheduled to get back at it on Saturday at 2 p.m.
