OMAHA, NE. — Murray State baseball will play Arkansas today at Charles Schwab Field for the opportunity to continue in the 2025 Men's College World Series. The Racers fell 6-4 to the UCLA Bruins in their debut Saturday afternoon. The Razorbacks fell 4-1 to the LSU Tigers later that night.

In a cruel stroke of irony, it was LSU that battled the Arkansas pitchers into submission, not the other way around. The Tigers had 11 two-strike foul balls to extend at-bats and run Arkansas' pitch count up.

The redshirt sophomore left his outing against Tennessee on Sunday with muscle spasms in his shoulder. Arkansas pitching coach Matt Hobbs and trainer Corey Wood came to the mound to check on Jimenez after he faced the first batter of the eighth inning, and he left the field with Wood.
