Taking the field for a first game in 345 days, the Clemson baseball team picked up where it left off in 2020, getting five solid innings from Davis Sharpe and a three-run homer from Jonathan French in a 5-0 victory over Cincinnati in the season opener at Doug Kingsmore Stadium Friday afternoon.
Clemson moves to 1-0 on the season. James Parker had two hits for the Tigers, while Bryce Teodosio matched his hit total from last season with a 3-for-4 effort that included a run scored. The shutout is the first in a season opener for the Tigers since a 2013 victory over William & Mary.
