GREENVILLE – The ball came out of Colorado Rockies pitcher Daniel Bard’s right hand with ease, and then rose as it neared the plate. Former Clemson shortstop Logan Davidson, already in a 1-2 hole, stuck his bat out and caught just enough of the ball for a foul tip. As Davidson grinned out at Bard, the pitchers all standing behind the cage laughed in knowing appreciation.
