‘The best rivalry in college baseball’

Clemson and South Carolina are renewing a baseball rivalry that, despite their differences, each side has one similar feeling about. “It’s the best rivalry in college baseball, and it’s a privilege to say you’re able to compete in that and be a part of that,” Clemson coach Erik Bakich said. The rivalry series will start […]

Bakich ‘absolutely’ considering this change to Clemson’s rotation

Clemson baseball settling on weekend rotation

Erik Bakich didn’t want to give too much away publicly in regards to where things stand with Clemson’s starting rotation heading into the 2023 season. That’s because Bakich wants to tell all of his players their roles privately first. As of Tuesday afternoon, the Tigers’ first-year coach had not met with them to do that. […]

Clemson baseball has ‘good problem’ in working to finalize weekend rotation

Clemson’s baseball program is less than a month away from officially starting the Erik Bakich era, and spots in the weekend rotation are still up for grabs.

Clemson’s pitching, particularly in relief, off to strong start

Coming into the 2022 season, Clemson coach Monte Lee pinpointed the mound as the primary area the Tigers’ baseball team needed to improve if they are going to successfully rebound from last season’s disappointment.
