Lyons' Blast Propels Little Rock Over Central Arkansas, 5-3

LITTLE ROCK – Little Rock used a five-run fourth inning, highlighted by a three-run home run by Nathan Lyons, then bypassed a handful of Central Arkansas threats to earn a 5-3 win at Gary Hogan Field. The win is the fourth-straight for the Trojans over the Bears, earning three points in the Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield Governor's I-40 Showdown.

Down 2-0 heading into the home half of the fourth, John Michael Russ drew an eight-pitch walk, followed Chris Prentiss being hit by a pitch to set the table for Lyons, who sent a 1-2 pitch over the left field wall to give the Trojans the 3-2 lead.
