Clemson baseball’s first series of the season was a bit of a mixed bag, even in a sweep.
While the Tigers scored 33 runs and outhit Xavier in all three contests, they struck out 20 times and left 31 runners on base.
“We have offensive game goals, and it’s to have 50 percent quality at-bats, it’s to have plus/minus in walks and hit by pitches compared to strikeouts. We were really good in those two categories this weekend,” head coach Erik Bakich said. “We have some other goals in terms of getting runners to third from second with no outs and then knocking in some runs from third with less than two outs.
