CLEMSON, S.C. – Virginia Tech’s Mac Caples had a career-high three hits and Sam Fragale notched two including an RBI single, but No. 4 Clemson scored seven runs over the middle frames and posted an 8-3 victory in the final game of a three-game ACC series at Doug Kingsmore Stadium Sunday afternoon.
The Hokies (17-17, 6-9 ACC) had a golden opportunity to due some early damage and put pressure on Clemson in the second inning when they loaded the bases with one out. However, an over-the-shoulder catch in shallow right field by second baseman Jordan Greene tallied the second out and Tiger center fielder Chase Pinder robbed Jack Owens of a grand slam to end the inning – as he went over the wall (with his glove) to make the catch.
