Freshman Davis Sharpe will make his debut on the mound at 1:00, and fellow freshman hurler Justin Wrobleski will start game 2. Both freshmen are two-way prospects, so it will be interesting to see if either or both hit and pitch today. The Tigers rallied to score 6 unanswered runs yesterday, winning 6-2. Davidson's 3-run homer put the Tigers up 3-2, transfer Michael Green added a solo homer, reaching base 4 times, and Sam Hall came up with a 2-out, 2-RBI single late in the game for insurance. Mat Clark got the win in relief and Carson Spiers the save. |

CLEMSON, S.C. - Bryce Teodosio's grand slam in the fifth inning and 5.0 strong innings pitched by freshman starter Davis Sharpe propelled No. 14 Clemson to a 7-2 victory over South Alabama in the first game of a doubleheader at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers took a 2-0 series lead and improved to 2-0 on the season, while the Jaguars fell to 0-2. Sam Hall scored on Logan Davidson's sacrifice fly in the first inning, then Teodosio belted his first career grand slam to center with two outs in the fifth inning. After Wells Davis' two-run homer in the top of the sixth inning, Hall responded with a solo homer in the bottom of the sixth inning, then Hall scored in the eighth inning on Kyle Wilkie's sacrifice fly. Sharpe (1-0) earned the win in his first game as a Tiger. The righthander allowed just two hits, no runs and two walks with eight strikeouts in 5.0 innings pitched. Jaguar starter JoJo Booker (0-1) suffered the loss, as he yielded three runs on three hits in 4.1 innings pitched. The series concludes with the second game of the doubleheader on Saturday at 5:05 p.m. |
