Gators sweep, drop Hogs to last in the SEC

FAYETTEVILLE — Florida scored five runs in the sixth inning and beat Arkansas 8-2 Saturday at Baum Stadium.

The No. 2 Gators swept the three-game series. The Razorbacks have lost eight straight SEC games in which they have never led.

Arkansas (21-15, 4-11 SEC) fell into a tie with Tennessee for last place in the conference after being swept for the second straight weekend.

Peter Alonso's three-run home run capped the Gators' five-run sixth. Florida (33-5, 11-4) forced Arkansas starter Zach Jackson out of the game after Jackson hit Buddy Reed with the bases loaded to break a scoreless tie.
