WELCOME TO RAZORBACK BASEBALL 2017 - HOGVILLE.net OFFICIAL GAME 14 THREAD
          ARKANSAS (10-3, 0-0 SEC) vs Rhode Island (5-6, 0-0 A10)

Friday's First Pitch is set for 3:00 pm and WILL NOT BE TELEVISED . This game will be streamed on the SEC+.   . 

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).

Someone will provide the play-by-play narrative for this game.  Razorbacks#1, A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S, Maddhog, Wisco Pig, sir-pigs-a-lot, Cornfed Pig and JHicks3636 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 Extra Innings and you understand the rules, feel free to join in the conversation.

[Mr.Swine89]

Tough Lefty today on the bump. Lets get those bats rolling!!!! I watched him throw against NC State last week and his breaking ball is nasty. Fun guy to watch throw when it's not against us. Knight can match him pitch for pitch. Hogs by 4 today in game 1. Hogs by 8 in game 2.

[dotnet]

Also hear he was a good qb at one time...

[SouthTulsaHog]

Are the games today 9 or 7 innings?

[BroyledNutts]

Are the games today 9 or 7 innings?

Two 9 inning games - game two to start approximately 40 minutes are game 1 concludes ....

[carter]

I can not listen to the two guys on the watchespn game.  How do I get the radio broadcast to match the watchespn game.  If I just have it on the radio - they are about 2 batters ahead of the telecast.  I can get the radio game on my I phone using the Simple Radio app but how do I get the two to sink-up?

[woodrow hog call]

Also hear he was a good qb at one time...

If his hands were bigger he would probably be in the league today.

[SPAL]

I'm worried about today. I feel like we aren't a bad weather team. I think we will struggle today against a good pitcher.

[PigWig]

I'm worried about today. I feel like we aren't a bad weather team. I think we will struggle today against a good pitcher.

If their pitcher struggles with control (11 BB in 13 IP this year), we will eat him alive like we have every other guy who has given us free baserunners.  If he's on point and painting the corners, we will probably be in for a low scoring game.
