Tigers top Cardinals to clinch fifth consecutive ACC series win

CLEMSON – A strong start by Austin Gordon and patience at the plate propelled Clemson to its fifth consecutive ACC series win with a 4-3 win over Louisville Saturday afternoon at Doug Kingsmore Stadium.

Tiger batters worked six total walks on the day, including four in the seventh inning that scored two runs and gave Clemson the lead for good.

No. 18 Clemson improved to 30-17 overall and 13-10 in the ACC, while No. 22 Louisville fell to 29-17 and 9-14.

Gordon had arguably the best start of his career in the win as he pitched six complete innings and gave up just one hit in 91 total pitches.
