Arkansas designated hitter Charlie Welch watches Wednesday, April 14, 2021, as a two-run home run leaves the field during the third inning of the Razorbacks' 26-1 win over UAPB at Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.

FAYETTEVILLE — A big reason the University of Arkansas baseball team is ranked No. 1 in the national polls going into today’s 5 p.m. game against Grambling State is that the Razorbacks also are No. 1 in home runs.

The Razorbacks (30-6, 11-4 Southeastern Conference) lead the nation with 70 home runs after hitting 16 last week, including nine in a two-game sweep of the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff and seven in taking two of three games against Texas A&M.
