McCladdie with a line shot to the first baseman and I think Purify thought the ball was caught on a line drive and pulled up before he got to second. He didn't realize the ball was caught on a hot hop by the first baseman and Georgia Tech managed to get the double play and get out of the inning.

TIGERS LOSE 9-3.



They open ACC play with a series loss. Hope they can avoid the sweep tomorrow! Tech's offense is unstoppable right now.
