FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas freshman Peyton Stovall made up for a base-running blunder with a pair of RBI hits late during the Razorbacks’ 5-4 comeback win over Illinois-Chicago on Thursday in the final game of a doubleheader.
Stovall had an RBI hit to plate Arkansas’ first run in the sixth inning, then had the game-tying hit during a four-run eighth. Stovall scored the game-winning run in the eighth when Michael Turner singled with two outs.
Stovall’s hits came after he slowed down while running to first base, which allowed UIC to turn a double play with the bases loaded to end the fourth inning.
