Pregame
Like in Fayetteville, it is a sunny, pleasant day in Springfield and should be a good night for baseball.
The pitching matchup tonight is between two freshman left handers - Arkansas' Patrick Wicklander and Missouri State's Ben Cruikshank. Wicklander has a much lower ERA (4.84) than Cruikshank (10.38), and he has thrown about 14 more innings.
The Razorbacks have mostly the same lineup as they have had most games this season. One notable lineup note tonight: Zack Plunkett will start in place of Casey Opitz at catcher.
