Brooks Crawford gets the start at 3:00. He had the best career outing last weekend against Austin Peay, striking out 10 with no walks, allowing just 4 hits and one run. Season-high 6 homers for the Tigers last night, and multi-HR games from Davidson and Cromwell. It was the 2nd multi-HR game for Cromwell and 5th time by a Tiger. Ironically, none of the multi-HR games were by Beer or Williams. Byrd, Wharton, Davidson and Cromwell are the ones to pull of the feat. Cromwell was 3-5 with the 2 HR's, a double and a walk. What a game for him after being benched the last 2!

Beer hit his team-leading 17th of the season (tied for 6th in Power Five), and the Tigers extend their Power Five lead in HR's with 85 on the season! That is a ridiculous number, and the season isn't over yet. Including the HR, Beer was 4-5 last night and has reached base in 8 of his last 10 at bats, 13 of the last 20! Hall homered for the 2nd time in 9 games. Tigers have won 15 of their last 17. ACC Tourney can't get here fast enough!

Wilkie one-out single, Beer HBP. 2 on for Williams!

Williams HBP! Bases loaded with one out for Cromwell, who had 2 homers and a double and 4 RBI's last night!

16th win in last 18 for the Tigers, and they are ACC Atlantic Champs! First time since 2010 and first time outright since 2006. They made it to Omaha both of those years! Beer hit his team-leading 18th homer, 2nd in consecutive games, tied for 4th in the Power Five. He also reached base all 4 times. His on base percentage has been insane over the last 7 or 8 games, reaching 13 of the last 15 at bats and 24 of the last 35! 

Tigers will go for their 3rd straight ACC road sweep tomorrow at 1:00. More in a bit!
