Play-by-Play Narrative:
For many years, Hogville members who love Razorback Baseball have come together to produce these game threads with play-by-play narrative for those that depend on it as their only source and for those that just simply enjoy it. These threads have been a foundation for great Hogville discussions and that tradition continues today as this is NOT a read only thread (all Hogville posting rules apply).

Wisco Pig will provide the play-by-play narrative for this this game.  A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S, , ucaHogfan, sir-pigs-a-lot, JHGiunta, HogFansReunited, Arkansas Traveler, Maddhog, JHicks3636 and Razorbacks#1 will assist with stats, back up, and support. We hope that the many other regular posters will join in also and continue to add quality input. If you are new to the Extra Innings - Razorback Baseball Game Threads and you understand the rules, feel free to join in the conversations.

[Sho Nuff]

I guess I'm old school because I want to beat Texas more than any other team.  I always have and always will despise those tea sippers.  Go Hogs!

[Hawgphish]

Martin hitting in the one spot.  DVH gut feeling! 

[Nickle-Pig]

thx for line up

[razCzar]

    GO get'em HOGS!   

[TebowHater]

Love Martin leading off. Less sure about Biggers 7, behind Fletcher and Koch, but I get trying to balance the lineup

[98hogs]

Time for the SEC Network to get off the Skirt work and put on Hog Baseball !!!!

[Pudgepork]

Go Hogs!   Unleash the Pork Power on the most hated team in Hogdom

[TebowHater]

I hope McFarland can keep it going. If he can prove to be a .300+ hitter with pop that will be massive for this team

[Pudgepork]

Amazing that the 2 best hitters in the batting order are true freshman

[TebowHater]

Amazing that the 2 best hitters in the batting order are true freshman

On a team returning a MASSIVE amount of talent...incredible by those two. Not to mention our freshmen pitchers.

[Hawgphish]

Softball going long!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding!!!!!!

[Bogghawg]

Softball going into extra innings.  O joy.

[jst01]

Surely they don't stick to this girls game... it could last forever

[Razorbacks#1]

Time for the SEC Network to get off the Skirt work and put on Hog Baseball !!!!

[Wisco Pig]

Hamilton starts the game by flying out to left-center.

[elksnort]

And the espn app will not let the game on yet!

[Bogghawg]

SEC Alt

I have the SEC Network and 4 SEC Network alternate channels and this game isn't on any of them.  I have never been able to watch anything on those alternate channels.  Don't know why I even have them.

[jst01]

I hope both these girls teams lose somehow.

[jfred59]

I have the SEC Network and 4 SEC Network alternate channels and this game isn't on any of them.  I have never been able to watch anything on those alternate channels.  Don't know why I even have them.

Dish?

[Knot2brite]

ESPN has laid off so many people that they can't get their darn together

[Wisco Pig]

Hibbeler bats 2nd for the Horns.   He pops out to Shaddy in shallow right field.   Two outs.

[Bogghawg]

Dish?

Yes.

[Bogghawg]

And it's not on Watch ESPN either.  What the what?

[jfred59]

Yes.

Thought so...same here and the app not working either

[elkhog]

Softball going long!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding!!!!!!

It freaking figures.  They will never get this ended.

[Wisco Pig]

Clemens (.385) takes Murphy to a 2-2 count, fouls off a pitch, and pops out to Biggers in short LF.

Texas goes quietly in the first.   0-0.

[Pork Ranger]

Will it be on SEC Network after the girls game??

[woo.pig]

Noooooooo

[ThisTeetsTaken]

Why even put softball on television?   Is there really any demand for it other than the parents? 

[BroyledNutts]

Scott Kline(sp?) calling balls and strikes - could be an adventure at the plate tonight

[Wisco Pig]

Will it be on SEC Network after the girls game??

Yes.

[SPAL]

I am SO SICK of watch ESPN

[elksnort]

Will it be on SEC Network after the girls game??

likely

[Bogghawg]

Those softball girls are quite healthy.

[Wisco Pig]

In the first inning for Arkansas:

3B Martin, .415
RF Cole, .370
LF Kjerstad, .380

[Pork Ranger]

I am SO SICK of watch ESPN

I've enjoyed it since it's free for me but I've also never ran into this problem
