FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas baseball coach Dave Van Horn told the Swatter's Club on Monday that it's time for older players like Luke Bonfield, Eric Cole and Chad Spanberger to get the bats going.
The three are projected starters with low batting averages. Bonfield has surged a little of late and is at .244. Cole is hitting .211. Spanberger is at .143 with 10 strikeouts in 28 at-bats.
“I think Luke is coming around,” Van Horn said. “But he's hit only one home run and if he doesn't finish the season with double-digit home runs I'll be shocked.
