FAYETTEVILLE — The second-ranked Arkansas baseball team is making its first adjustment to the weekend rotation since February for this week’s SEC series against Texas A&M.
Left-hander Zach Root will start Game 1 on Thursday at 7 p.m. and Landon Beidelschies will start Saturday’s scheduled Game 3, but Gabe Gaeckle will be moved to the bullpen after a series of short starts. He will be replaced in the rotation by junior right-hander Gage Wood in Game 2.
Wood will return to game action for the first time since a Feb. 23 start against Michigan when he suffered a shoulder injury while throwing a warmup pitch prior to the third inning.
