FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas shook off their purple haze history against LSU with a strong relief outing from Kevin Kopps and a rally from an early three-run deficit Friday at Baum-Walker Stadium.
Heston Kjerstad hit his 14th home run, and Kopps fired four shutout innings in a 11-6 victory before a paid crowd of 11,714, the sixth largest in Baum-Walker history.
It took the Razorbacks (39-12, 19-7 SEC) six innings to catch up after falling behind 3-0. Once they did, the Hogs piled it on the LSU bullpen, blowing the game open with a six-run eighth.
