The No. 5 Arkansas Razorbacks (35-7, 13-5 SEC) won Game 1 of the midweek set Tuesday evening, 10-0, against the Little Rock Trojans (18-21, 7-7 OVC) in seven innings at Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.
Sophomore right-hander Tate McGuire cruised through five innings of work against the Trojans, as he allowed just three hits and racked up three strikeouts and two walks on 67 pitches.
Out of the bullpen, veteran right-hander Dylan Carter and freshman righty Carson Wiggins slammed the door shut with two innings of no-hit, four-punchout baseball.
Arkansas' bats had little issue against Little Rock's pitching staff, going 11-for-26 at the plate with five extra-base hits, four walks and only six strikeouts. The Hogs' nine runs scored combined between the second and third innings, plus five errors made by the Trojans, put to rest any hope for an upset win. Cam Kozeal led the team with three hits, including a double.
The only negative, if there was any, is that Charles Davalan's 35-game on-base streak came to an with an 0-for-3 performance, though he did record an RBI on a sac-fly.
