From the Sports Chest: Arkansas vs Texas 1989 Baseball Game Ticket
April
29, 1989 – Arkansas vs. Texas is an event in any sport. I didn’t attend many
Arkansas Razorbacks baseball games during my days as a student at the University
of Arkansas, but when my interest level changed when the Burnt Orange came to
town. As Ernie Banks would say, “Let’s play two!” The Hogs won 2 games on this
day at George Cole Field, 8-4 and 14-7, and won the series against their hated
Southwest Conference rival. My ticket is for the first game (Saturday at 2:00) and
I don’t recall if I saw both games that day. I do remember having a great time,
giving the downward Hook ‘em Horns sign a lot and enjoying a day at the
ballpark. Coach Norm DeBriyn and the Diamond Hogs were co-champions of the
Southwest Conference, finished 51-16 on the season and made it to the College
World Series.
