Parker was injured running to first during the season’ fourth game against Furman but returned to the lineup this weekend with a two-hit, two-RBI day Sunday as the Tigers won the series with arch-rival South Carolina with a 5-2 victory Sunday afternoon at Doug Kingsmore Stadium.
Parker ripped a two-out, two-run double to right-center in the seventh that broke a 2-2 tie and score the winning runs for the Tigers in the rubber game of the series. Clemson has won five of the last six season series with South Carolina, and has won six of the nine “winner takes all” games since it was moved to a three-game format.
