Hannah Gammill hit a tie-breaking two-run homer in the top of the sixth and No. 12 Arkansas broke open a tight game with five runs in the seventh to earn an 8-1 nonconference win at Western Kentucky on Monday.
Gammill’s 11th homer of the season snapped a 1-1 tie and gave Arkansas (20-5) the lead for good with nobody out in the top of the seventh. It chased Hilltoppers starter Shelby Nunn (13-3).
The Razorbacks, who had an 11-game winning streak snapped Sunday at No. 15 Tennessee, then left no doubt with five more in the top of the seventh.
