Arkansas baseball scored 14 runs and lost by 12. It was that kind of night at Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.
Indeed, No. 5 Georgia was on one Saturday night — especially in the final innings. The Bulldogs scored an incredible 26 runs to down the Razorbacks 26-14, including 11 runs in the 9th inning alone.
Michael O’Shaughnessy had himself a truly special outing on Saturday, accounting for 8 RBIs by himself with a pair of home runs, including a Grand Slam in the 9th inning. Ryan Wynn also finished as a member of the two-shot club — blasting a 2-run shot in the 3rd with the cherry on top, the 26th run, added in the 9th. But as great as O’Shaughnessy and Wynn were, Dan Jackson was even better.
The Georgia star tied a Bulldogs record with 3 home runs on the day, accounting for 6 RBI with 4 total hits. Jackson’s bat directly contributed Georgia’s first 4 runs of the evening.
Georgia’s win on Saturday smashed an SEC record with 9 home runs across a single league contest. In doing so, the Bulldogs collected the series victory over the Razorbacks after losing Game 1 Thursday and evening the score in Game 2 on Friday.
If you’re wondering, the last time Georgia played Arkansas in football (2021) ended with a final score of 37-0, which is less than the combined score of this matchup.
