Pitching an issue for Hogs in regional opener

Arkansas won its first game of the NCAA Fayetteville Regional 13-8 over NJIT on Friday, but the Razorbacks had to use seven pitchers to advance to the winner’s bracket.

"Boy, that was a marathon," Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn said. "Got to give credit to our team for hanging in there. Man, it was not going our way early."

Arkansas' starter Caleb Bolden threw two strikes to quickly get ahead of the first batter, but then made a mistake to Albert Choi, who hit it over the left field fence to give NJIT an early 1-0 lead.
