That's a wrap on the 2026 Arkansas Diamond Classic. Four dates of Razorback Baseball and Softball at Baum-Walker Stadium and Bogle Park drew 14,801 fans — thank you, Hog fans.
The Diamond Classic, hosted by Diamond Sports Alliance, brought Arkansas Razorback Baseball and Softball together for a fall series at Baum-Walker Stadium and Bogle Park this September and October.
Fans saw exhibition games, Red/White scrimmages, home run derbies presented by Wright's Barbecue, and current and former Razorbacks up close at Fan Fest presented by George's. Baseball closed its fall with a 7–1 win over Central Arkansas, and the Red team took the softball finale 7–2.
Thank you to every Hog fan and family who made a day of it.

Fan Fest brought fans inside the Diamond Classic — autographs, meet-and-greets with players and coaches, and the chance to get up close with current and former Razorbacks throughout the series.
Presented by George's, Fan Fest ran alongside the series at Baum-Walker Stadium and Bogle Park this September and October.
Presented by Wright's Barbecue, the Home Run Derby put Razorback bats on display under the lights — baseball at Baum-Walker Stadium in September, then the first-ever Arkansas softball derby at Bogle Park to close the series.
The Diamond Classic opened September 18 — the Diamond Sports Alliance team on the field at Bogle Park, and Diamond Cam inside the catcher's mask for the baseball Home Run Derby at Baum-Walker Stadium.
