Hennessy flawless as Tigers shut out Furman

Clemson did not get many runs in Wednesday’s 2-0 victory over Furman at Doug Kingsmore Stadium in Clemson, but it did not need very many thanks to starter Jacob Hennessy.

The lefty had perhaps the best outing of his career, pitching close to seven scoreless innings while allowing just two hits in his third win of the season. Hennessy improved to 3-0 on the season.

Brooks Crawford closed the game for the Tigers, who won their 15th straight following a loss, dating back to last April.

Hennessy went 6 1/3 innings Wednesday night. Though he was not overpowering, he had just three strikeouts, the junior was efficient throwing strikes. He induced 10 ground balls and did not issue a walk.

Wednesday…
