CLEMSON — Erik Bakich has never shied away from sharing his vision for what the Clemson baseball program could potentially become.
The fourth-year head coach of the Tigers has some grand ideas that will require a significant amount of fundraising.
“I have lots of ideas,” Bakich said. “But we are probably tens of millions of dollars short of executing these.”
Several of Bakich’s ideas have already come to fruition, including the establishment of a beer garden and the renovation of the visitors’ bullpen.
One of the things he wants to do next is retool the area out behind right field between Doug Kingsmore and McWhorter Stadium, and turn it into something that resembles what the Atlanta Braves have with The Battery at Truist Park.
