The announcers made a comment specifically about that, saying that they must be pretty good athletes if they're able to play both football and baseball at the D1 level (he was right, obviously ;) ). Fitzpatrick went 1 for 4 today.

Western tied up the game in the top of the 9th, but Arkansas came back with a run in the bottom of the 10th to win 3-2. Very close game and it looked like the team played pretty well against a very good opponent.
