VOLS DROP 4-3 HEARTBREAKER TO NO. 7 ARKANSAS; RAZORBACKS CLINCH SERIES
CSTV.com, NY - 11 hours ago
Arkansas scored the winning run in the top of the ninth inning Saturday as the seventh-ranked Razorbacks defeated the Tennessee baseball team 4-3 at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. A late rally by the Volunteers was held off by Hogs closer Jess Todd, who notched his fourth win of the season by working 2 1/3 hitless innings of relief.

Arkansas improved to 21-8 (6-2 SEC) with the series-clinching win. Tennessee fell to 17-10 (4-4 SEC) with the loss and will look to salvage the series Sunday at 2 p.m. ET.

The Vols managed just seven hits Saturday, with Jeff Lockwood and Andy Simunic each responsible for a pair. Vols outfielder Shawn Griffin hit a two-run homer in the seventh to put UT on the scoreboard.

Vols Late Rally Comes Up Short Against Arkansas, 11-7
WVLT, TN - 9 hours ago
Arkansas completed a three-game sweep of the Tennessee baseball team Sunday, downing the Volunteers 11-7 at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. The seventh-ranked Razorbacks' five-run second inning gave them a lead they never let go of as UT fell to 17-12 (4-5 SEC) on the year.

Arkansas (22-8, 7-2 SEC) out-hit the Vols 19-15 on the day and 32-26 for the series. Four different Vols had multiple hits Sunday, and underclassmen Yan Gomes, Jeff Lockwood and Cody Brown each drove in two runs.

Tennessee had the potential winning run at the plate in the bottom of the eighth, at a point when Arkansas was deep into its bullpen. The Hogs brought their sixth pitcher of the game - Brian McLelland - to the mound to face Vols shortstop Danny Lima with two men on base, two outs and the Big Orange trailing 9-7. McLelland induced a flyball to centerfield, helping to secure his first save of the year.

The Vols will look to end their three-game skid Wednesday at 7 p.m. when they break from conference play to host ETSU. Tennessee then travels to Lexington, Ky., for a weekend series against the defending SEC champion Kentucky Wildcats.

Ouch, swept by the Hogs. Hopefully the Diamond Vols fare better against ETSU.
