Arkansas third baseman Cayden Wallace is shown during a scrimmage Thursday, Sept. 23, 2021, in Fayetteville.
FAYETTEVILLE — Cayden Wallace has picked up at the plate in 2022 where he left off in 2021.
Arkansas’ sophomore third baseman was productive in every at-bat during his two scrimmages this week at Baum-Walker Stadium.
On Sunday, Wallace was 2 for 2 and walked in three plate appearances. Wallace came to hit again Monday with two more extra-base hits to bring his total to three in the preseason.
Wallace blasted a solo home run approximately 400 feet to left-center field on a 1-0 fastball from freshman left hander Hagen Smith in the first inning Monday, then doubled off the left-field wall the next inning in his second at-bat against Smith.
