4/15/2023 9:59:00 PM | Softball
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – No. 11 Arkansas (30-12) took the series over UAB softball (21-20) with an 11-1 win in five innings on Saturday. The Razorbacks scored four runs in the first and seven runs in the fourth to take the win.
"Have to tip your cap to Arkansas." Head Coach AJ Daugherty said, "They came out and executed offensively. We were able to cut our strikeouts down to one tonight and I liked our approaches."
We get one more opportunity tomorrow to see good pitching, compete, and continue to prepare for the remainder of our conference schedule."
Arkansas (11) UAB (1)
The Razorbacks took a commanding lead early and the hosts did not look back. The first five Arkansas batters reached base safely and the Hogs were able to push four runs across in the first inning.
UAB got on the board in the third inning after Bella Wiggins reached on an error. Sierra Frazier then lifted a high fly ball into right center that was dropped by the Arkansas center fielder, allowing Wiggins to score.
Makenzie Droddy led off the fourth inning with a base hit through the left side, but the UAB baserunner was erased with a double play.
Arkansas pulled away in the bottom of the fourth with a seven-run frame. The Razorbacks tallied seven hits and drew two walks while batting around in the inning to put the run-rule in effect.
