GAME 20 Thread: ARKANSAS (10-9, 0-3 SEC) vs. #1 LSU (19-2, 2-1 SEC)

[GatorHog]

Woooo!  Go hogs!

[ucahogfan]

Can you jump in now, and welcome back

Got it.

[ucahogfan]

Benintendi plunked in the back on the 1st pitch.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Bobby Wernes plays 3b and hits .355, reaches base at a .467 clip and has a slugging % of .597. Leads the team in triples with 4.

[ucahogfan]

Wernes flares out to Bregman at SS.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Michael Bernal walks up to the plate and brings a .364 avg. with him.

[ucahogfan]

Benintendi moves to 2B on his 6th steal of the year.  Poche had Benintendi picked off, but the 1B made a bad throw down to 2B.

[ucahogfan]

Bernal lines a single into left as Benintendi comes into score.  Bernal's 10th RBI of the year.  Bernal moves to 2B on a throw that went to home plate.

2-0 Hogs.

[GatorHog]

YES!

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Tucker Pennell (.238) gets the nod at catcher tonight.

[Razorbacks#1]

Hogs look hungry

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Bernal lines a single into left as Benintendi comes into score.  Bernal's 10th RBI of the year.

2-0 Hogs.

+1

[GatorHog]

We look salty in these unis

[ucahogfan]

Pennell lines out to the RF.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Back to the top of the order in Eagan (.307) , he got a hit and scored a run first time up.

[ucahogfan]

Eagan loops one into right.  Bernal doesn't score on some horrible base running.  Runners on the corners with 2 outs.  Vitello was waving him home.  Vitello raised his hands like "what are you doing" when Bernal stopped and moved back to 3B.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Now Serrano (.240)(1 for 1 tonight) stands in.

[Razorbacks#1]

Gotta continue on that

[rhog1]

Can't believe Bernal held up on that.

[ucahogfan]

Serrano flies out to deep CF as the CF makes a running catch.  Serrano got a whole lot more of that ball than I thought he did.  Bernal costs us a run.

[Razorbacks#1]

Can't believe Bernal held up on that.

Surely someone had to hold him up on that

[Ugly Uncle]

Man...those things usually come back to haunt you.

[ucahogfan]

Surely someone had to hold him up on that

Vitello didn't.  Not sure who would have stopped him.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Leading off for LSU is Chinea (.297)

[ucahogfan]

Chinea grounds out 4-3.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Now batting: Foster (.327)

[ucahogfan]

Foster runs the count full, and he is caught looking on a nice breaking ball.  Taco's 1st K.

[Razorbacks#1]

Vitello didn't.  Not sure who would have stopped him.

Looked like he stopped about 10 or so feet after turning the corner for some reason

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Zardon comes up, batting .269, he's the #9 hitter for LSU and plays 1b.

[ucahogfan]

Zardon singles into CF.

[rhog1]

Looked like he stopped about 10 or so feet after turning the corner for some reason

He had to have thought Vitello signaled stop for some reason.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Now batting is Fraley, grounded out first time up.

[ucahogfan]

Looked like he stopped about 10 or so feet after turning the corner for some reason

Yeah, who knows why he stopped, but he wasn't held by the guy he should have paid attention too.

[ucahogfan]

Fraley grounds out 4-3.

[Razorbacks#1]

Yeah, who knows why he stopped, but he wasn't held by the guy he should have paid attention too.

True

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Spoon (.278) leads off the 3rd for the Hogs

[ucahogfan]

Interesting stat, but Spoon has only drawn 2 walks so far this season.

[ucahogfan]

Spoon grounds out 6-3 on a nice play by Bregman.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Bonfield coming up now.

[ucahogfan]

Bonfield singles down the 3B line on the 1st pitch.

[rhog1]

Funny I read the tiger rant thread and they are steady complaining about the umpire.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Nomura bats now, he hits .338 and grounded to short first time up

[ucahogfan]

Funny I read the tiger rant thread and they are steady complaining about the umpire.

It has been a tight zone, but fair on both sides so far.

And the LSU fans complain every time that something doesn't go their way.

[rhog1]

Good job Bonfield. Would be great to see him get the bat going.

[Razorbacks#1]

Good job Bonfield. Would be great to see him get the bat going.

Waiting on it to, nice rip

[ucahogfan]

Nomura runs the count full (strike 2 was high, but a great job framing by the LSU C), and he walks to put runners on 1B and 2B with 1 out.  Poche at 52 pitches threw 2.1 IP as the LSU pitching coach comes out to the mound.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Here comes Benintendi ! Team leader in homers and bats .288

[ucahogfan]

Benintendi walks on 4 pitches to load the bases.
