Ole Miss starter James McArthur tossed a career-high eight innings. (File) By Matt Jones Special to the Journal FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Ole Miss out-slugged the SEC’s best home-run hitting team on Thursday night. The Rebels hit four home runs and scored seven over the final two innings to beat the No. 15 Razorbacks 9-1 at Baum Stadium. Ole Miss will go for the series win at noon Friday in the first game of a doubleheader.Two-run homers by Tim Rowe in the second inning, Colby Bortles in the eighth, and Tate Blackman and Bortles in the ninth accounted for most of the Rebels’ runs. The game’s only run that didn’t come via a home run was by Ryan Olenek in the eighth after he doubled to chase Arkansas starter Blaine Knight and later scored on Rowe’s third hit. Ole Miss (26-16, 10-9 SEC) improved to 21-1 when it scored four or more runs. “We’ve got a lot of power and we’re a really good hitting team,” Ole Miss pitcher James McArthur said.
