The No. 1 Ole Miss Rebels continue to be hot on the diamond. Ole Miss improved to 4-0 on Wednesday night with a 12-1 win over Arkansas State in its home opener.

The Rebels were up 10-1 when John Rhys Plumlee stepped to the plate. The Rebels weren’t hurting for insurance runs, but Plumlee made it a double-digit lead, launching a towering shot over the wall in left-center field for his first-career dinger.

The Ole Miss football team was proud of the two-sport star, sharing the highlight clip from the baseball team’s Twitter account and tagging Lane Kiffin:

Ole Miss baseball continues the homestand with a three-game weekend series against UCF.
