Mallard blasts two home runs, but Muleriders fall 6-2 to Arkansas-Monticello

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas – The Southern Arkansas Mulerider baseball team suffered their first loss in the QuikTrip DII Classic after they were defeated by Great American Conference foe Arkansas-Monticello 6-2 on Saturday afternoon in Grand Prairie, Texas.
 
Southern Arkansas (4-2) scored first off of the bat of freshman catcher Mason Mallard who hit a solo homerun in the home half of the second to give SAU an early 1-0 lead. UAM would answer a half-inning later by scratching their first run off of SAU starter Yumezo Densaki.
 
Mallard would leave the yard again in the 5th inning with his second solo homerun to break a tied 1-1 ballgame.
 
The Boll Weevils added two runs in the 6th and 7th innings to take a 5-2 lead and end Densaki's day on the mound. UAM would add an insurance run in the 9th to win their third game in as many days in Grand Prairie.
 
Mallard was 2-for-3 with the previously mentioned solo homeruns. Densaki suffered the loss, but scattered four hits and two runs while striking out three in 5.2 innings of work.
