Clemson's baseball and softball teams experienced varied fortunes in their recent games. The softball team achieved a milestone by securing their fourth consecutive 30-win season after defeating Notre Dame 8-5 in extra innings, improving their record to 30-14. Meanwhile, the baseball team had a mixed series against Pitt. They won the series opener 6-4, with Austin Gordon securing his fifth save since becoming the closer, boosting their record to 31-6, 12-4 in ACC play. However, they lost the next game 8-4, with their record falling to 31-7, 12-5 in ACC play, before bouncing back to win the series, improving to 32-7, 13-5 in ACC.
That was one of the worst pitched games I’ve seen. Wake had like 2 big hits over the last 5 innings. And FSU couldn’t stop walking, hitting batters, and throwing the ball to the backstop. Just incredibly frustrating all around. Same way the Clemson series went down.
