Clemson University's baseball team showcased a strong performance across several games, significantly improving their season record to 20-6, with a notable 16-2 record in another series. Cam Smith from FSU Baseball hit a remarkable 400' home run, marking his third hit of the day and bringing his batting average to .507, in a game where FSU defeated ND 8-4. Clemson's victory over North Carolina with a score of 4-1 featured Thompson's first complete game of 2024, highlighted by a seven-strikeout performance. In another match, Clemson defeated Duke 8-5, thanks to Tristan Bissetta's grand slam, contributing to Clemson's fourth grand slam of the season. The series against Duke concluded with Clemson winning two out of three games, securing a victory in their first ACC series of the season. This win was particularly notable as it came against the No. 3 ranked Duke, following Duke's previous victory over the then No. 1 ranked Wake Forest. Clemson's baseball team is anticipated to climb into the top 5 of some national polls after these consecutive wins. Looking ahead, Clemson is set to face the currently undefeated FSU in another significant ACC matchup, with both teams having a combined record of 35-2, promising a high-stakes game with a postseason feel.
Duke drops a couple of games to Clemson after winning the series opener. https://t.co/Vrgt0oKatQ
Fresh off of a top 10 series win, Clemson will get Florida State at the Doug next weekend in another marquee ACC matchup. Combined record of 35-2 right now. Phenomenal experience this early in the season in games that have a postseason feel to them already.
Big series win for the Tigers over the No. 3 team in the nation. On the road, too. Duke beat then No 1 Wake Forest in a series last weekend. FSU is dangerous. ACC is going to be wild.
Heck of a win for Clemson ... Tigers will probably jump into the top 5 of some national polls after winning two in a row, on the road in Durham, in first ACC series https://t.co/9iMeuQhRbN
Clemson takes two out of three at No. 3 Duke. Doesn't get any easier because the Tigers host (currently) undefeated FSU next weekend. But a good start to ACC play with a series win, on the road, versus a highly ranked team. https://t.co/SpfbtkHCa6
