Arkansas pitchers 'flush' bad taste by shutting down one of nation's top offenses

FAYETTEVILLE — One inning into Tuesday night's game, it appeared fans would get the expected offensive showcase between Arkansas and Texas Tech.

The Red Raiders singled on the game's first pitch and loaded the bases in the top of the first, but came away empty-handed. Arkansas put its first five batters on base and scored three runs in the bottom of the inning to take a 3-0 lead.

The Razorbacks added two runs in the second and Texas Tech scored a run in the top of the third, but neither team scored again. The two offenses that combined average nearly 17 runs per game combined for only six Tuesday.
