LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas outscored Arkansas-Little Rock 16-3 in 14 innings of baseball Friday night at Gary Hogan Field, but that's not really what either coach cared about Friday night when they met with media.
Oh, they did hail the night as a historic happening for college baseball in the state, the first time the University of Arkansas has met another state school in a big three sport in decades. It may have never happened before in baseball.
But what they wanted to talk about is how the event helped their teams improve during a fall period when it is difficult to make young players understand what a mistake can cost in real games.
