Pregame
Fortunately for the Razorbacks, this game isn't being played at Baum-Walker Stadium. Thunderstorms have soaked Fayetteville all afternoon.
There is a chance for thunderstorms in North Little Rock tonight, but it appears the teams will be able to get the game in before the worst hits the central part of the state. Right now it is very warm and muggy.
Arkansas is starting several backups tonight, including Zack Plunkett at catcher, Trey Harris at designated hitter and Curtis Washington Jr. in left field. Arkansas also is using its typical midweek infield with Jordan McFarland at first base, Trevor Ezell at second and Jack Kenley at third.
