OMAHA, Neb. — Right after finishing up his baseball game today at the USA Baseball Training Facility in Clardy, N.C., future Razorback and Springdale Har-Ber rising senior Blake Adams will race to his TV.
Adams, a pitcher whose fastball tops out at 94 mph and can also rake at the plate, will join the masses rooting on Arkansas (48-20) as it tries to win the national championship in a 5:30 p.m. game against Oregon State (54-12-1).
“It’s been a magical ride for them this season,” Adams said. “Now it is time to finish it off. I can’t believe that in a year or so I will be a Razorback and I would absolutely love to be on that mound in Omaha with the ball in my hand in the same type situation.
