Arkansas 0, James Madison 0 — Middle 2nd Inning
Jared Sprague-Lott made two more nice defensive plays from third base after a lead-off hit by Ryan Dooley.
A pair of groundouts to Sprague-Lott accounted for the first two outs, then Jacob Steinberg grounded out to shortstop Wehiwa Aloy to end the inning.
JMU has had two lead-off base runners but nothing to show for it.

After Mason Dunaway was hit in the helmet by a pitch to lead off, third baseman Jared Sprague-Lott fielded a good bunt by Mike Mancini and made a good throw to first.
Catcher Ryder Helfrick threw out Dunaway trying to steal third base for the second out. Second baseman Peyton Holt made a backhanded slide and throw against his body to throw out Fenwick Trimble at first base to end the half inning.
Pregame
It is still cold, but it is sunny and the north wind is not as strong today at Baum-Walker Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 2 p.m.
There are a couple of lineup changes for Arkansas today with Will Edmunson playing left field and freshman Ryder Helfrick making his debut behind the plate. Edmunson entered as a defensive replacement in the eighth inning yesterday and went 0 for 1 at the plate.
Right-hander Brady Tygart will make the start on the mound for the Razorbacks. Tygart worked his way into a starter after he came back from an injury late last season, but this will be his first early-season start of his career.
JMU will counter with left-hander Max Kuhle, who was a lightly used pitcher a year ago.
