Your Arkansas Razorbacks take on the Kentucky Jellycats for a three game series beginning this Friday at 5:30 on SECN+. Second game is on Saturday at 1:00 on SECN+ and finally on Sunday at 12:00 on SECN+. This should be a tough series as Kentucky is pretty salty this year. Here's hoeing our pitching doesn't suck and our bats come alive. (That last part was a joke, so here's hoping we string some timely hits together). THIS is the game Calipari should throw out the first pitch. As usual, GO HOGS!

And now, your Bob Uecker quote for the game:

When I looked at the third base coach, he turned his back on me.

Also, no PBP by me for any of these games. I will be tied up and may not even be able to watch. So someone take up my slack!
Well, shit...

I'll take Saturday for sure and possibly Friday or Sunday. 
Perish peacefully in a warm environment.

I should be at Sunday's game. Seems they have a big lawn area, similar to the Hog Pen, I will probably get a ticket there. If any other woopiggers will be there...

I can potentially take PxP duties for one game. However, I'd be remiss if I don't remind you that I've done them for 3 of our losses this year plus the first half of game 1 against Tech when we were getting our brains beat in (I gave up in the 5th and we promptly came back and won).

I keep beating this drum,but it is blasphemous that espn isn't carrying even one game in a series with two top 10 teams

I will be there. We have tickets for all 3 days. Weather for Friday night doesn't look good at all. Our tickets are just above 1st base dugout.

I've been saying the same thing. Stupid lacrosse.

That's the part I don't get. I can understand if the metrics say college baseball doesn't move the needle, but half the time they're putting on the 4th replay of the regional cornhole championships or freaking frisbee golf instead of what would be a pivotal and highly entertaining ncaa matchup.

Just to beat the dead horse even more, we don't even mention the perfectly good SEC Network alternate channel anymore that they have refused to use for anything for years.

I believe you are an O's fan, I am doing the two-fer of Reds-Orioles on Saturday night and the hour and a half to Lexington for the Hogs on Sunday.

We need some bats this weekend. These fuckers can hit.

Feral...you are doing fine. We all have slumps. Just ask Diggs.

Looking at the weather, the Hogs might have a doubleheader on Saturday. If they finish on time, we are going to Cincinnati. Thanks for the heads up.

A doubleheader on Saturday means I don't get to see the Hogs at all. So hush yo mouth.

Agreed, but we can pitch. Should be a good matchup. I don't think we need to or will get into a slugfest. If we do, that's not good

Fuck those Kentucky slapdicks (or whatever Bobby P called them)

Oh no. Sunday looks to be the best weather. I'm thinking Friday is a wash.

We have tickets Friday behind the dugout as well.  Two of my teenagers have fallen in love with Arkansas baseball and this will be their first game.  Hopefully the weather holds off.  We are hoping to head to Baum for regionals too if we can get tickets.

Go to the icon that shows NCAA baseball under "Leagues". Then scroll along. Also, it may not be there yet.

Edit: I just checked. It isn showing yet, but if you search Arkansas Baseball on the app, the games are there.
Well, shit...
