Diamond Hogs In A Tough Spot

For the second day in a row, Arkansas couldn't overcome a pair of big innings by Alabama.

The Crimson Tide scored two runs in the fourth and six in the eighth inning and rallied for an 11-6 win Saturday. And now — with the two losses — the Razorbacks find themselves in a tough position in the Southeastern Conference race.

Arkansas has dropped to 9-13 in the SEC and now sits in 11th place overall. The Razorbacks need to climb back into the top eight spots in the conference to advance to the SEC Tournament, but time is running out.

“Basically what it comes down to, if we want to keep playing baseball in three weeks we’re going to have to win every game from here on out," Ben Tschepikow said. "That’s really all it comes down to. We can’t afford to lose anymore games. We put ourselves in a really big hole and it’s going to be tough. But I think we’re going to come back and give it everything we have. It’s going to be tough, but hopefully we can pull it out.”
