Locked in: Weatherly calm under pressure in strong stretch

Locked in.

That’s how Monte Lee describes his Friday starter Sam Weatherly after a second dominant start in a row.

Weatherly didn’t allow a hit over seven innings to open the South Carolina series at Founders Park Friday, where only four Gamecock batters reached base on him in the 7-1 Clemson win (three walks/hit batter).

“I don't think that Sam felt any extra pressure,” Lee said. “Sam, if you watched his demeanor, one of the biggest adjustments that he made from week one to week two -- he was really amped up in week one.
