Clemson got two runs in the bottom of the sixth inning on an RBI single from Elijah Henderson and Sam Hall scored on a wild pitch and then an error as the Tigers topped Liberty 5-3 Friday at Doug Kingsmore Stadium in Clemson.
The marked the Tigers third straight win to start a season, as head coach Monte Lee improved to 3-2 in season openers.
On the mound, starter Sam Weatherly gave up just one run on two hits in four innings of work, but he did allow six walks. However, he bounced back by striking out eight batters.
