Deacs spoil Clemson sweep chance with Saturday rout

CLEMSON - Clemson’s spot on the NCAA Tournament bubble going into next week’s ACC baseball tournament was assured with a 14-5 loss to Wake Forest on Saturday.

The Tigers (33-23, 15-15 ACC) were seeking a first series sweep since March and a winning record to finish the ACC regular season. Instead, a couple of innings gone wrong had Clemson in trouble into the late-going at Doug Kingsmore Stadium and a potent Demon Deacons lineup pounced on them from there.

Clemson jumped on top first thanks to a two-run, line-drive homer to center field from shortstop Logan Davidson.
