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.
