The Bulldogs travel to Arkansas looking for their fourth straight series win.
STARKVILLE, Miss. — Mississippi State baseball travels to Arkansas for yet another important weekend series. These are two of the top programs in the SEC West, but the Razorbacks have dominated the series since the arrival of MSU head coach Chris Lemonis.
Last week, Kentucky put up 11 runs and seven runs in their two wins to take the series over Arkansas. Luckily for the Razorbacks, this series is at home as they have dominated at Baum-Walker Stadium this season with an impressive 31-2 record at home. Both of these teams play a similar game where they rely heavily on pitching and just scrap across runs, although the Bulldogs are batting higher as a team than the Razorbacks, as they hold a .285 batting average. Luckily for State, their star first baseman Hunter Hines is back to being his usual self after a slump, but Logan Kohler, who has struggled this season at the plate, has been tearing the cover off the ball as of late.
This weekend, the game is about which offense can get the starter out first, especially on Friday night. Stephen and Smith are the two elite arms in the SEC, and whichever team can run the starter has the advantage on Friday night.
