The No. 1 Arkansas Razorbacks (32-5, 12-3 SEC) were walked off by the No. 7 Georgia Bulldogs (32-6, 10-5 SEC) in a 7-6 extra-inning loss Sunday afternoon at Foley Field in Athens, Georgia.
Junior starter Landon Beidelschies didn't always have his best stuff, but fought through a three-run bottom of the second to provide 5.0 innings for the Diamond Hogs. The lefty allowed four earned runs on four hits with six strikeouts and one walk.
It was a relatively rough day for the offense, which managed just seven hits in 44 at-bats and struggled mightily against Georgia starter Leighton Finley. The Hogs struck out 15 times and walked in just three at-bats. The team finished 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position.
Despite that, the Razorbacks didn't go down quietly. Down two runs in the top of the ninth, catcher Ryder Helfrick and shortstop Wehiwa Aloy blasted solo home runs to tie the game. in the top of the 11th, leadoff man Charles Davalan drove in the lead-taking run with an RBI groundout.
Bullpen righty Carson Wiggins was electric in 2.0 innings, as he topped out at 102 MPH and collected four straight strikeouts at one point. The Bulldogs did get an unearned run against him plus one hit.
As a whole, Arkansas' bullpen combined for seven innings with three hits allowed, two earned runs, 11 strikeouts and zero walks.
