OFFICIAL SATURDAY BASEBALL THREAD: CLEMSON vs. No.21 Georgia Tech

CUTrevor 2022-05-07 15:42:31


Tigers lead 5-1 after 3 innings! They jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the 1st. Blackwell reached on an error and Taylor singled in his first at bat, just like last night. He is playing in the field for the first time in left after being DH last night. Wagner was hit by a pitch to load the bases, and Hawkins doubled to score the first 2. Brewer singled in a run, French sacrificed in another and Grice hit a 2-out double for 2 more.

Gilbert gave up a leadoff homer in the 2nd to make it 5-1. Amick is at DH with Wright on the bench, which is very strange. Wright must be either hurt or sick. He was 2-4 with 2 RBI's last night. Corbitt is also out again, as he was last night, with a broken finger. Perfect timing for Will Taylor to make his debut!


TIGERS LEAD 5-1 AFTER 3.

Gordon starts the 5th and gives up a leadoff single but nothing else. Gilbert was cruising, but I guess Monte thought he only had 4 good innings in him. Too bad he won't get the win.

Ingle flies out. Amazing that the Tigers have scored 8 runs with Ingle and Wagner going 0-6! Wagner is 0-6 in the series. I guess I hyped him up too much over the last week, saying he's in the hunt for National Player of the Year. Lol He still is, but I might have jinxed him a little bit. This is the longest mini-slump he's had in a while!

Labriola in from the pen with a runner on 2nd and no outs. Gordon gave up 3 runs.

CUTrevor 2022-05-07 16:46:37


Good grief Labriola gives up a one-out double and a single for 2 more runs to make it 12-6. Hoffmann comes in from the pen. Hope they didn't wake the Tech offense up! I guess Barlow will get the start tomorrow with Hoffmann pitching now.

Ugh Hoffmann walks his first batter Parada on full count. He was 0-4 today. 2 on with one out.

Good grief Hoffmann gives up a full-count walk, another homer and 2 singles all with 2 outs! Ammons comes in from the pen to try to get the final out. Monte didn't want to waste Ammons today, but he has no choice with the tying run at the plate! And Hoffmann has already given up 3 HR's.

Reply
CUTrevor 2022-05-07 17:14:45


Ammons gets a grounder to end the game!



TIGERS WIN 12-9 TO CLINCH SERIES!!!



They'll go for the sweep tomorrow at 1:00. I'll have post-game interviews shortly!
