FAYETTEVILLE -- The No. 8 Arkansas baseball team overcame a sloppy defensive showing and rallied for two runs in the 10th inning for a 10-9 victory over Louisiana-Monroe on Tuesday.
Casey Martin raced home with the winning run on Jordan McFarland's bases-loaded grounder to shortstop against a drawn-in infield with no outs as Joey Jordan's throw went wide of the plate. Heston Kjerstad's single -- his third hit -- tied the game 9-9 moments earlier, scoring Eric Cole, who had led off the inning against closer Keegan Curtis (2-1) with an infield single.
Evan Lee went 2 for 6 in the leadoff spot, hit a go-ahead three-run home run in the sixth and posted the final two outs on the mound to improve to 2-1.
