Heartbreak in Tallahassee: Seminoles score late to top Tigers in ACC showdown

Heartbreak in Tallahassee.

Max Williams came up big for Florida State in extra innings Friday night, hitting a homer in the ninth and driving in the winning run in the 11th as No. 5 Florida St. defeated No. 3 Clemson 6-5 in game one of an ACC showdown at Dick Howser Stadium.

Clemson, losers of five straight ACC games, falls to 36-11 overall and 13-9 in the ACC while Florida St. improves to 32-9 and 13-6.

The Seminoles used a single, a sac bunt and an intentional walk to set the stage for Williams, who drove the ball to left to score the run ahead of the throw.
