On Friday, the No. 24 Razorbacks wrecked MU’s 20-game winning streak with a 9-2 win. In their first loss since the Feb. 17 season opener, the Tigers rarely reflected the clutch-hitting, efficient-pitching team that cruised through five weeks unscathed.
That team reappeared Saturday at Taylor Stadium.
