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.ibleedpurpleandgold wrote:interesting to see justin fitzpatrick started for the baseball team today in CF.ibleedpurpleandgold wrote:yeah him and Justin Fitzpatrick are both on the baseball team my first year chris fuchs was are kicker and got some time as a pitcher on the baseball team.meganeck wrote:I don't know if it was mentioned somewhere at one time, but I see Steve McShane, a RB on the football team, is on the baseball roster.

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.
