DURHAM, NC – This Clemson team is just a little different.
Over the past few seasons, Clemson’s baseball team has been accused of playing too tight or not having fun. The result? A team that has underachieved and failed to win on the big stage.
That trend is reversing under first-year head coach Monte Lee – Clemson improved to 14-1 in one-run games on the season and put together another miraculous comeback in defeating Wake Forest Saturday afternoon in the ACC Baseball Championship at Durham Bulls Athletic Park.
The Tigers defeated Virginia and Louisville’s aces in their first two games of the tournament but were shut down by Wake’s soft-tossing starter for six innings Saturday.
