Walk in the park

FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas baseball team won in a walk Friday night at Baum-Walker Stadium.

The No. 10-ranked Razorbacks drew a season-high 16 walks -- with eight of those base runners scoring -- as they beat No. 2 Mississippi State 12-5 before an announced crowd of 7,213.

"I think it was a combo of everything," Arkansas Coach Dave Van Horn said of the walkathon. "Their pitchers were having a little trouble locating. It's not like the umpire didn't have a pretty big zone.

"I think that we fouled off a lot of pitches. We took a lot of pitches.
