Titsworth gets a ground ball 6-4-3 to end an efficient first.  Clemson coming to bat.

Cam flies out to the berm

Purify singles, steals second and third

But Upstate pitcher Amp Phillips strikes out Priest and Paino to get out of the first inning jam.

0-0 after 1.

Titsworth gives up a mammoth shot to Spartan 4-hole hitter Johnny Sweeney, no relation to Dabo.

Strikeout, hit, fly out to left and a fielders choice get the Tigers out of the inning.

Spartans lead 1-0 after 1 1/2 here at DKS!

Nothing doing for the Tigers in the bottom of the second.

They go down in order.

Due up for the Spartans:

Ritzer 0-0

Zenor 0-1

Sheehan 1-1

Spartans lead 1-0 after 2.

Titsworth works out of a leadoff walk of the 9-hole hitter

Ritzer is stranded at 3rd.

Still Spartans 1-0 after 2 1/2 innings.

Ciufo singles and steals second, but is stranded there.

Clemson hitting the ball hard, but right at 'em.

Upstate still leads 1-0.

Due up for the Spartans:

Campbell 0-1

Sweeney 1-1 HR

Newman 0-1

Upstate manufactures another run off of two hits.

Another extra-base hit by Johnny Sweeney (2-2, 2B, HR)

They're definitely hitting the ball on the screws early.

Sweeney comes around to score on a Preston Lucas bloop.

Upstate 2 - Clemson 0

Due up for the Tigers in the bottom of the 4th

Priest 0-1

Paino 0-1

Listi 0-1

need some hits here!

Quote from Casey on May 30, 2025, 8:32 pm

Priest and Paino K, as Amp Phillips continues to roll through 4 full innings.

He hit Listi (27 HBPS on the year), Jarrell reached on an infield hit but Crighton struck out on a nasty breaking pitch

Still 2-0 Upstate after 4 full.
