What a sweet sunday...gamecocks beat the tigers in clemson by the score of 5-1. We had great seats behind home plate 12 rows up, one row from Doug Kingsmore himself thanks to a clemson fan, and got to watch a great game on a sunny sunday. The game was closer than yesterday but the gamecocks pulled it through and played steady defense late despite some early mistakes. It was bitter sweet to watch all those faithful clemson fans leaving after 8 innings. It was good to beat clemson back to back and limit CU to only 2 runs in 2 games. Clemson came into the weekend averaging better than nine runs a game, but managed only two runs total against the Gamecocks.
The two wins over Clemson gave South Carolina coach Ray Tanner his 900th career victory in 21 years with North Carolina State and the Gamecocks. It was also South Carolina's fifth win in its past six games with Clemson (5-2) - a rare run of dominance in a state series where the Gamecocks (5-1) came in with a slight 17-15 edge since 2000.
The teams play twice more this season, at South Carolina on April 9 and at Clemson on April 16.
