Ole Miss scored three runs in the second inning and never trailed, beating the Razorbacks 5-4 Friday night.
The Rebels scored all five of their runs off Arkansas ace Trey Killian, who gave up six hits and tied a career-high with four walks.
The three-run inning started with two outs, when Killian lost his command and walked back-to-back batters. Cameron Dishon followed with an RBI-single to put Ole Miss on the board.
After the play, Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn was ejected for arguing balls and strikes from the dugout. Two batters later, Will Golsan gave the Rebels a 3-0 lead. When the dust settled, Killian had thrown 40 pitches in the inning.
The rest of Ole Miss' scoring came on solo home runs by Dishon and Colby Bortles, the younger brother of Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles, in the fourth and fifth innings, respectively.
Andrew Benintendi's two-run home run in the seventh inning pulled Arkansas within a run, but Arkansas managed just three base runners the rest of the game.
Van Horn was not the only Razorback ejected, as Clark Eagan was tossed after his at bat in the fifth inning.
Arkansas and Ole Miss will play the rubber match of the series Saturday at 2:05 p.m.
