Clemson’s NCAA Tournament History The 2009 season marks Clemson’s 34th trip to an NCAA Regional dating back to the 1947 season. That year, Clemson actually advanced to the Final Eight of the NCAA Tournament, but it is not considered a College World Series season because only two teams went to the CWS in those days. Clemson won the 1947 District III Tournament in Charlotte by coming through the losers’ bracket. The Tigers, coached by Randy Hinson, lost in the first round to Alabama 8-2, then came back with a win over Auburn and two wins over Alabama to advance. Clemson’s season ended when Yale, led by future President George H.W. Bush, defeated the Tigers in New Haven, CT by a score of 7-3. Bush was 1-for-3 as the starting first baseman. Clemson made its first trip to Omaha and the College World Series in 1958 when the Tigers again came through the losers’ bracket. After losing to Florida in the first round, Clemson came back to defeat George Washington, Florida State, and Florida twice to advance under first year Head Coach Bill Wilhelm. Clemson defeated Florida 15-14 and 3-1 on June 9 to advance. Harold Stowe struck out 17 in that second game on June 9, and that is still a Clemson single-game record for strikeouts in an NCAA Tournament game. The Tigers advanced to Omaha in 1959, this time with three easy wins; one over Georgia Tech and two over Florida State. One of the wins over the Seminoles was a 24-2 victory at Gastonia, NC. That tally is still tied for the most runs scored by Clemson in an NCAA Tourney game.

The Tigers did not advance to Omaha again until 1976. In fact, Clemson made just one NCAA Tournament appearance between 1960 and 1974. That was in 1967 when Clemson reached the Regional Championship, but lost to Auburn 6-5. Clemson made it to Omaha three out of five years between 1976-80. Clemson won a regional in Columbia, SC in 1976 with three straight wins, then came through the losers’ bracket in Miami (FL) in 1977 to advance to Omaha, where the Tigers lost their first game at the hands of Arizona State by a score of 10-7. The 1980 season was the first year Clemson played host to a regional, as Clemson swept three games by scoring 45 runs, including 17 in a 17-12 win over South Carolina. Clemson has been to the NCAA Tourney every year since 1987 except 2008. The Tigers have been to the NCAA Tourney 22 of the last 23 years. Clemson also made College World Series trips in 1991, 1995, 1996, 2000, 2002, and 2006.

Tigers Earn 34th NCAA Tournament Bid Clemson is playing in its 34th all-time NCAA Regional in 2009. The 34 appearances are sixth-most in NCAA history, trailing only Texas (53), Florida State (47), Miami (FL) (38), Oklahoma State (37), and Southern California (36). In the Clemson Regional from May 29 to June 1, the Tigers played Oklahoma State three times. The Cowboys have made 37 NCAA Tournament appearances, fourth-most in NCAA history. The Tigers will face Arizona State in the Tempe Super Regional. The Sun Devils have made 33 NCAA Tournament appearances, seventh-most in NCAA history. Therefore, Clemson will have faced two of the top-seven teams in NCAA history in terms of NCAA Tourney appearances by season’s end.

Clemson to Play in Eighth Super Regional Clemson will travel to Arizona State for the Tempe Super Regional this weekend. It will be the Tigers’ eighth super regional appearance in the 11 years of the format. Since 1999, Clemson has missed playing in a super regional just three times (2003,04,08). Clemson has been to the NCAA Tournament every year since 1987, with the excep-tion of the 2008 season. Clemson is tied for fifth in the nation in super regional appearances. Cal State Fullerton, Florida State, Miami (FL), and Rice have all been to nine super regional tournaments (including this year), while Clemson is tied with Louisiana State for fifth. Arizona State will be making its fifth super regional appearance, tied for 10th-most in the nation. In terms of all-time wins in regional and super regional play, Clemson has 88, tied for seventh-most in NCAA history. Arizona State has 83, tied for 10th-most in NCAA history.

The Tigers are fielding at a .967 clip as well.

The Starting Pitchers Both team’s starting pitchers have yet to be announced for the Tempe Super Regional.

2009 Clemson Baseball Notesranked as high as #1 in the nation after a 26-0 start, still the longest winning streak in Clemson history. Arizona State finished the year with a 57-12 record and won the College World Series with a 2-1 victory over South Carolina. The Tigers started Bill Musselman, who went on to play in the Major Leagues with the Seattle Mariners and Toronto Blue Jays and had a 12-0 re-cord entering the game. However, he had to face an Arizona State lineup that had five future Major Leaguers in the batting order (Jamie Allen, Chris Bando, Hubie Brooks, Bob Horner, Chris Nyman). Horner went 3-for-5 and Allen went 3-for-4. Allen and Nyman also hit home runs. Clemson was led by Dave Caldwell, who had three doubles and three RBIs. The three doubles are still tied for the most doubles in a College World Series game, as he was named to the All-College World Series team for his performance. Steve Nils-son hit the only home run for Clemson, who pulled to within 10-7 with two runs in the ninth inning but could get no closer.

Battle of Outstanding Pitching Staffs Based on the pitching stats of Clemson and Arizona State, there might be low-scoring games this weekend. Arizona State is first in the nation in ERA (2.79), while Clemson is fifth (3.57). Both schools used outstanding pitching to advance to super regional play. In posting a 3-0 record in the Tempe Regional, Arizona State had a 1.67 ERA, the second-best figure in the 64-team field in regional play. Clemson had a 4-1 record with a 2.25 ERA. That was the fourth-best ERA in the regional round. If the season ended today, Clemson’s national ERA standing would tie for its second-best national finish in that category in school history. Clemson’s 1996 team led the nation with a 3.03 ERA thanks in part to future Major League pitchers Kris Benson, Billy Koch, and Ken Vining. The 1984 and 1992 teams also finished fifth in the nation in ERA. Clemson has a 2.74 strikeout-to-walk ratio this year, the second-best mark in school history. The only team with a better figure in school history is the 1996 team that had 663 strikeouts and 210 walks for a 3.16 strikeout-to-walk ratio. The 2006 team that went to the College World Series is third at 2.61. One will notice that each of the top-six schools in the nation in terms of ERA are still alive in the NCAA Tournament.

Clemson vs. Pac-10 Conference Clemson has an 8-16 lifetime mark against Pac-10 schools, including a 1-7 mark in the NCAA Tournament. The Tigers’ only NCAA win over a Pac-10 team took place in the 1958 College World Series, a 3-1 win over Arizona behind a 16-strike-out performance by Harold Stowe. That was Clem-son’s first-ever game in the College World Series. The Tigers have not beaten a Pac-10 school in the NCAA Tournament since then. Clemson has lost seven games in a row to the league in the NCAA Tournament, with the last game coming against Stanford in the 2000 College World Se-ries. This will be Clemson’s first game against a team from the Pac-10 since the 2001 regular sea-son, when the Tigers defeated Oregon State in Las Vegas, NV by a score of 13-2 on February 25. This will be Clemson’s first-ever game against a Pac-10 school on its home field.

Clemson vs. Pat Murphy This will not be the first time Clemson has faced Arizona State Head Coach Pat Murphy. Murphy brought Notre Dame to Clemson during the 1994 NCAA Tournament and his Fighting Irish came away with an 8-1 upset victory. Clemson was the #1 seed in that six-team regional and was the top-ranked team in the nation entering the NCAA Tournament. Murphy was the head coach at Notre Dame from 1988-94. He left for Arizona State the follow-ing August, so his last games as Notre Dame head coach were at Clemson in that regional. Notre Dame lost to Auburn in the championship game of that regional. Murphy has one connection to Notre Dame on his current Sun Devil roster. Freshman outfield-er Johnny Ruettiger is the nephew of former Notre Dame gridder Dan “Rudy” Ruettiger. The movie “Rudy,” released in 1993, portrayed his life as a walk-on on Notre Dame’s football team in 1974 and 1975. Johnny Ruettiger attended the same high school (Joliet (IL) Catholic) as his uncle. Johnny Ruettiger is no walk-on, as he is bat-ting .350, second-best on the team. He has started 23 of the team’s 59 games. He was 3-for-6 with three RBIs and four runs in the Tempe Regional when he started all three games.

Long Trip for the Tigers Clemson will make its longest trip for an NCAA Tournament game in history when it travels to Tempe to face Arizona State. The trip is 1,664 miles and it is the longest trip for Clemson for an NCAA Tournament game by 573 miles. The sec-ond-longest trip was to Texas Tech and Lubbock, TX for the 1997 NCAA Central Regional. This will be Clemson’s longest trip for any baseball game since the Tigers played in a regular-

Tiger Tidbitsseason tournament in Las Vegas, NV in February of 2001. Clemson’s longest trip in history for a baseball game took place in 1994, when Clemson played in a regular-season tournament in Hawaii. It is 4,573 miles from Clemson to Honolulu, HI. This will be Clemson’s first-ever baseball games in the state of Arizona.

Tigers Face Another Traditional Power Clemson certainly does not have an easy path when it comes to getting to the College World Series this year. The Tigers had to defeat Oklaho-ma State to advance to the Tempe Super Regional and now must win at #2 Arizona State to reach the College World Series. Oklahoma State made its 37th appearance in the NCAA Tournament this year, the fourth-most appearances in NCAA history. The Cowboys have been to the College World Series 19 times, tied for the fifth-highest total in NCAA history. Arizona State is in the NCAA Tournament for the 33rd time, the seventh-highest figure in history. The Sun Devils have been to the College World Series 20 times, the fourth-highest figure in history. Arizona State has won the national title five times, finished second five times, and third five times. Clemson is in the NCAA Tournament for the 34th time, sixth-most in history. Clemson’s 11 Col-lege World Series appearances are 11th-most as well.

Polls The Tigers moved up two spots to #14 in the Baseball America poll this week after going 4-1 in the Clemson Regional last week. Clemson also

moved up two spots to #13 in the Collegiate Base-ball poll. The Tigers were ranked #14 in the Sports Weekly coaches poll following the ACC Tournament, as that May 25 poll is the last Sports Weekly poll until the College World Series concludes. Clemson has had at least one final top-25 ranking in 12 of Head Coach Jack Leggett’s first 15 seasons in Tigertown. The Tigers have also been ranked #1 for 20 weeks by at least one of the three major polls under Leggett.

Tigers Finish Third in Overall ACC Standings Thanks to a regular-season-ending sweep at N.C. State from May 14-16, Clemson (19-11) finished in third place in the overall ACC standings behind only Florida State (19-9) and North Carolina (19-10). The Tigers also tied Florida State and North Carolina for the most ACC regular-season wins in 2009.

Tigers Advance Through Losers’ Bracket Clemson advanced to the Tempe Super Re-gional by going through the losers’ bracket at the Clemson Regional. It marked just the second time that Clemson had gone through the losers’ brack-et at a home regional or super regional.

31 That’s how many of Clemson’s 64 games have been against teams that have played in the 2009 NCAA Tournament, which equates to over 48 percent. Clemson has an 18-13 record against teams in the field, including a 5-7 record on opponents’ home fields. The Tigers have played 12 different teams that participated in the NCAA Tournament. Clemson has played one top-eight national seed in North Carolina, and the Tigers were 2-2 in four meetings with the Tar Heels, all games played in the state of North Carolina. The Tigers are also 5-5 against #1 seeds, 7-6 against #2 seeds, 4-2 against #3 seeds, and 2-0 against #4 seeds.

Clemson Win Total +13 Over 2008 Clemson has a 44-20 record entering the Tempe Super Regional. That is quite an improve-ment over last year when the Tigers had a 31-27-1 record. The 13-win improvement ties for the third-best mark in school history from one season to the next. The all-time record is a 17-win improvement from the 1990 to 1991 seasons. The Tigers made a 16-win improvement from 1957 to 1958 when Head Coach Bill Wilhelm took over and led the Tigers to the College World Series in his first year. Head Coach Jack Leggett took Clemson to a 12-win im-provement in his first year in 1994 as well.

Tigers in Postseason in Three Major Sports Clemson has had a solid sports year, espe-cially in the three major men’s sports. Clemson is one of 13 Division I programs to play in a bowl game, the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, and the NCAA Baseball Tournament. Clemson is also one of just six to reach a super regional and play in the other two. Joining Clemson on the list are three other ACC schools (Boston College, Florida State, North Carolina). The others on the list include Kansas, Louisiana State, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas, and Utah. This is just the eighth time in school his-tory that Clemson has played in a bowl game, the NCAA Basketball Tournament, and NCAA Baseball Tournament in the same year. The baseball program is the third Clemson athletic team to reach a “Sweet 16” of an NCAA Tournament this spring. The women’s tennis and rowing teams also accomplished that feat.

Leggett Leading a Consistent Winner Head Coach Jack Leggett has a 724-329-1 (.687) record at Clemson in his 16th season. The legendary Bill Wilhelm has the most wins of any Tiger coach with 1,161 in 36 seasons (1958-93) at Clemson. Leggett’s 724 wins are second-most in school history. No other Clemson coach has more than 70 wins while in Tigertown. Leggett earned win #700 as the leader of the Tiger program in Clemson’s 10-1 win over Duke on April 5, 2009. Then against Oklahoma State in the Clemson Regional on May 31, he earned his 1,100th career win in a 15-1 victory. Through Leggett’s 15 seasons at Clemson, he had 680 wins. Only four other programs (Florida State, Wichita State, Rice, Miami (FL)) have more wins over that span from 1994-08.

Tigers Have 195 Top-25 Wins Under Leggett Clemson defeated #2 North Carolina on March 6 by a score of 5-4 in 10 innings and beat #24 Florida State on March 21 by a score of 8-7 in 11 innings. Then in a three-game series against #5 Miami (FL) in April, the Tigers won two games. On April 21 at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, Jeff Schaus hit a walkoff grand slam to lift Clemson to a 5-3 win over #19

Coastal Carolina. Then in the series against #4 Georgia Tech, the Tigers won two games. In the ACC Tournament, Clemson beat #4 North Carolina 4-3 in 11 innings. That means Clemson has eight wins over top-25 teams and six victories over top-five teams in 2009. In 16 seasons at Clemson, Head Coach Jack Leggett has 195 wins over teams ranked in the top 25. Only four times in his 15 previous seasons has he had a losing record against teams ranked in the top 25.

Close Games the Norm Clemson has a 44-20 overall record in 2009. Incredibly, 16 of its 20 losses have been by three runs or less, as the Tigers have lost seven one-run games, four two-run games, and five three-run games. Two of the other four losses were by four runs, meaning the Tigers have lost by more than four runs just twice all season. In their 44 wins, the Tigers have outscored their opponents 370-131, an average margin of 5.4 runs per win. In Clemson’s 20 losses, it has been outscored 133-77, an average margin of just 2.8 runs per loss.

Tiger Bats Hot in the Last 21 Games The Tigers have won 12 of their last 16 games, 16 of their last 21 games, and 19 of their last 25 games thanks in part to their bats coming alive. After Clemson’s 5-4 loss to #4 Georgia Tech on April 24,

2009 Honorsthe Tigers’ team batting average stood at .291. But since, Clemson has a 16-5 record. Over that 21-game stretch, the Tigers are hitting .327 with a .484 slugging percentage and .410 on-base percentage. The Tigers have also averaged 7.5 runs per game and 11.5 hits per game while totaling 28 stolen bases in the last 21 games as well. Wilson Boyd has been Clemson’s hottest hit-ter during the last 21 games. He is 36-for-78 (.462) with a .528 on-base percentage. Mike Freeman is 37-for-87 (.425) during that stretch as well.

Walking Up in 2009 The Tigers have an on-base percentage 89 points higher than their batting average thanks to to-taling 310 walks in 64 games (4.8 per game). Three Tigers, Brad Miller (53), Mike Freeman (42), and Jeff Schaus (42) have all totaled at least 42 walks and are among the ACC leaders in that category. Freeman is batting .338, but his on-base percentage is .424. Schaus is hitting .326, but he has a .433 on-base percentage. The same is true with Miller, who is hitting .273 with a .408 on-base percentage thanks to a plethora of walks.

Tigers’ Two Double-Digit Home Run Streaks In 2009, Clemson has had two home runs streaks of 10 games or more. The Tigers hit at least one home run in 11 straight games from April 8-22. It was the Tigers’ longest streak since 2002, when Clemson hit a home run in 11 consecutive games from May 25 to June 19. The longest Tiger homer streak prior to the 11-game streak in 2002 was in 1996, when Clemson had a 13-game homer streak from March 31 to April 17. Earlier in 2009, the Tigers also had a 10-game streak of hitting at least one home run.

Spreading the Wealth Due to a rash of injuries and a wealth of young talent, Clemson has used many players in the field this season. Only six Tigers have enough plate appearances (minimum of 3.0 per game) to qualify for the ACC lead in batting average, but a total of 14 Tigers have totaled at least 42 at-bats. Further-more, 12 Tigers have started at least 20 games in the field. Infielders Mike Freeman, Brad Miller, and Ben Paulsen are the only Tigers to start every game this season.

Tigers Fifth Nationally in Scoring Defense Clemson has allowed just 4.1 runs per game this season, the fifth-best mark in the nation behind only Texas, Arizona State, Virginia, and Cal State Fullerton. Clemson has a 3.57 ERA and has allowed just 35 unearned runs despite committing 81 errors on defense, a sign of the pitchers’ ability to overcome miscues behind them. A sign of the team concept of the Tiger pitching staff is the fact that Clemson did not have a single pitcher named First or Second-Team All-ACC despite having the nation’s fifth-best ERA.

Finding the Zone The Tiger pitching staff has a solid 2.7-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio this season, as it has 534 strikeouts against only 195 walks. Among the team leaders in strikeout-to-walk ratio are Casey Harman (6.1-to-1) and Graham Stoneburner (4.1-to-1).

Tigers Pitch First No-Hitter Since 1984 Five righthanders combined to pitch a no-hitter in Clemson’s 14-0 win over South Carolina-Upstate at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on March 18. Justin Sarratt, Scott Weismann, Kyle Deese, Tomas Cruz, and Matt Vaughn combined to allow just two baser-unners, one on an error in the outfield on a routine flyball in the first inning and one on a walk in the eighth inning. The Tigers turned a double play in the eighth inning, meaning the five pitchers combined to face just one batter over the minimum. Sarratt pitched the first 5.0 innings, allowing no walks with two strikeouts to earn the victory. Weismann, Deese, Cruz, and Vaughn each pitched an inning to close out the no-hitter. The five pitch-ers combined to allow only one walk with seven strikeouts. It was a special game for Deese, a red-shirt freshman from Inman, SC. After sitting out the en-tire 2008 season, Deese made his debut in a Tiger uniform against the Spartans. He pitched a perfect seventh inning with a strikeout. It was not the first time the Tigers flirted with a no-hitter in 2009. Against Furman 15 days earlier at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, Clemson led 2-0 with no one on base, two outs, and one strike away from a no-hitter in the ninth inning. However, an infield single ended Clemson’s no-hit bid. On the next pitch, Brian Harrison hit a two-run homer to tie the score. Furman was later victorious by a score of 4-2 in 14 innings. The Tigers last no-hitter prior to 2009 came in the second game of a doubleheader on March 6, 1984, when Scott Parrish no-hit The Citadel in a seven-inning game at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. Clemson’s no-hitter against the Spartans was only its second involving multiple pitchers.

Newcomers on the Mound In 2009, the Tigers have sent out eight first-year pitchers to the mound, six of whom are freshmen. Righthanders Kevin Brady, Tomas Cruz, Alex Fred-erick, David Haselden, Richard Mounce, and Scott Weismann along with lefthanders Chris Dwyer and Will Lamb have all been a big reason the Tigers have a solid 3.57 ERA and .250 opponents’ batting average this season.

Four Tigers Signaling Success on Two Fields Clemson might have the best group of quar-terbacks of any baseball team in the country. Four Tigers, Chris Dwyer, Richard Mounce, Kyle Parker, and Matt Vaughn, were standout signal-callers in high school. And one (Parker) actually plays on the Tiger football team and will compete for the starting quarterback job in 2009. Dwyer, a freshman lefthander from Swamp-scott, MA, led his high school teams to a 38-2 record in four years as the starting quarterback and earned all-conference honors all four seasons. He was also a first-team All-New England pick and Boston Globe Player-of-the-Year at Salisbury (CT) School who passed for over 5,100 yards and 58 touchdowns along with 21 rushing touchdowns in his career. Mounce, a freshman first-baseman and righthander from Columbia, SC, was named Mr. Football in South Carolina as a senior at Blythewood High School. He was his team’s offensive MVP in the Shrine Bowl after being named AAA Offensive Player-of-the-Year. As a senior, he completed 152-223 passes (68.2 percent) for 2,416 yards and 34 touchdowns against just two interceptions and rushed for 667 yards in 10 games. Mounce led his team to a 33-1 record in his high school career and teamed with current Tiger wide receiver Marquan Jones to set numerous school records. Parker, a sophomore outfielder from Jackson-ville, FL, red-shirted on the gridiron in 2008 and will compete for the starting job in 2009. Like 2008, he went through spring practice with the football team in 2009. In the 2009 Spring Game, he completed 13-21 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown pass against no interceptions, and he also added a rush-ing touchdown. The First-Team All-ACC player was successful in juggling the two sports in 2008 and did the same in 2009 during the spring football season. Parker, who graduated from Bartram Trail High School a semester early in order to play baseball at Clemson in 2008, was the #34 football prospect in the nation and #4 quarterback in the nation out of high school according to ESPN.com. He had over 2,500 passing yards and 15 touchdowns along with over 1,000 rushing yards as a senior. Vaughn, a senior righty and co-captain from Summerville, SC, starred as a quarterback at Sum-merville High School under the legendary John McK-issick, the nation’s all-time winningest high school coach. Vaughn was one of the top-50 quarterbacks in the nation according to PrepStar. As a senior at Summerville High School, he quarterbacked along-side then-freshman A.J. Green, a current Georgia star who is one of the nation’s top wide receivers. The fact that Clemson has so many quality football players on its roster is fitting due to the fact that Head Coach Jack Leggett was also a standout football player at Maine. He starred as a defensive back and placekicker for the Black Bears from 1974-76. Leggett still holds the school record for longest field goal with a 52-yarder.

Boyd, Harman Earn All-ACC Tourney Honors Junior outfielder Wilson Boyd and sophomore lefthander Casey Harman were both named to the All-ACC Tournament team for their performance at Durham (NC) Bulls Athletic Park from May 21-23. They were two of the 11 players selected for the all-tourney squad. Boyd went 6-for-13 (.462) with five RBIs, one walk, and one stolen base in three games, and he had two hits in each game. His tournament highlight came against #4 North Carolina on May 23. With the bases loaded and two outs in the 11th inning, he belted a walkoff single off the wall in left field to give Clemson a 4-3 victory. Harman set career-highs for innings pitched (7.1) and strikeouts (10) in a starting role against the Tar Heels. He did not factor in the decision, but he was a big reason the Tigers were able to pull out a 4-3 win in 11 innings. Harman, who was one of only two pitchers selected to the all-tourney team, also allowed just seven hits and one walk while throwing 107 pitches, including 74 strikes.

Five Tigers on Regional All-Tourney Team Five Tigers were named to the Clemson Re-gional All-Tournament team, as the Tigers captured the title by going 4-1 at Doug Kingsmore Stadium from May 29 to June 1. Infielders Ben Paulsen (1B) and Mike Freeman (2B) along with outfielder Wilson Boyd and designated hitter Chris Epps all made the team among position players. Lefthander Chris Dwyer was one of only two pitchers named to the team. Epps was named Clemson Regional MVP after going 10-for-19 (.526) with one double, two homers, six RBIs, seven runs, and a stolen base in five games.

Delk, Vaughn Receive Degrees Righthander Trey Delk and Matt Vaughn both received their undergraduate degrees in com-mencement ceremonies in Littlejohn Coliseum on May 8, 2009. Delk, a fifth-year senior from Elgin, SC, received his degree in psychology. Vaughn, a senior from Summerville, SC, received his manage-ment degree. Vaughn has also been a three-time member of the ACC Academic Honor Roll.

Boyd Raising His Average Junior outfielder Wilson Boyd (Hickory, NC) saw his team-season-long 11-game hitting streak come to an end in late May, but he is still one of Clem-son’s hottest hitters of late. In the last 15 games, he is 29-for-59 (.492) with eight doubles, two triples, 18 RBIs, nine runs, six walks, a .538 on-base percent-age, and two stolen bases. During that stretch, he has been named to the All-ACC Tournament team and Clemson Regional All-Tournament team, the only Tiger that can make that claim in 2009. After the Georgia Tech game on April 25, his season batting average stood at .250. But thanks to his hot bat, he has raised his season batting average to .349 with a .428 on-base percentage. He also has 15 doubles, three triples, three homers, 46 RBIs, and 24 walks against only 19 strikeouts in 175 at-bats in 2009. Boyd had a streak of seven consecutive hits over a two-game span on May 10,11. He went 3-for-3 against North Carolina-Wilmington on May


9

2009 Clemson Baseball Notes10, then he had a hit in each of his first four at-bats against Furman a day later before he grounded out in his fifth at-bat of the game. He also went 2-for-3 against the Seahawks on May 9.

Boyd Clutch Wilson Boyd has two of Clemson’s four walkoff hits in 2009. With two outs and the bases loaded in the 10th inning against Charlotte on February 22, he lined a walkoff single to right-center to give Clemson a 6-5 win. Then in the ACC Tournament against #4 North Carolina on May 23, he duplicated that feat. With two outs and the bases loaded in the 11th inning against the Tar Heels, he belted a 3-2 pitch off the wall in left field for a walkoff single to give the Tigers a 4-3 victory. Boyd also easily leads the team in hitting with runners in scoring position. He is 26-for-53 (.491) in that situation this season and is hitting 140 points higher than the next closest Tiger.

Cruzing on the Mound Junior righthander Tomas Cruz (Amarillo, TX) has used his ability to change speeds to allow him to be extremely effective out of the bullpen in his first season at Clemson in 2009. In 45.1 innings pitched over 23 relief appearances, the junior col-lege transfer has four saves, a 3.38 ERA, and .193 opponents’ batting average. He has also allowed just 31 hits and 16 walks with 39 strikeouts.

Delk Delivers on Two Fronts Senior righthander Trey Delk (Elgin, SC) had a day to remember on May 8. That morning, he received his psychology degree in commencement ceremonies in Littlejohn Coliseum. Later that night, he started on the mound for the Tigers and earned the win against North Carolina-Wilmington. In 5.0 innings pitched, he allowed just five hits, one run, and one walk with two strikeouts. Delk, Clemson’s Friday starter when healthy, missed the latter stages of March and most of April due to a back injury, but he has still been effective this season. In 49.2 innings pitched over 11 starts, he is 4-1 with a 3.44 ERA and .272 opponents’ bat-ting average. He also has allowed 22 walks with 41 strikeouts.

Dwyer’s Masterful Outing #1 Freshman lefthander Chris Dwyer (Swamp-scott, MA) had a masterful performance against one of the nation’s best teams in #5 Miami (FL) in the second game of a doubleheader on April 11 at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. He pitched a complete game two-hitter to lead Clemson to a 9-1 win. He earned ACC Pitcher-of-the-Week honors. He also was named to the Brooks Wallace Award National All-Star Lineup and was the Southeast Region Player-of-the-Week by CollegeBaseballInsider.com thanks to his outing. In 9.0 innings pitched, Dwyer allowed just two hits, one run, and four walks with 10 strikeouts. He became the first Tiger to pitch a complete game in 2009. He allowed just two runners past first base, including only one runner past second base, during the entire game. On the season, Dwyer has a 5-5 record and 4.85 ERA in 81.2 innings pitched over a team-high 16

starts. He has allowed only 72 hits (.235 opponents’ batting average) and 30 walks with 88 strikeouts. Dwyer leads the team in both innings pitched and strikeouts in 2009. No freshman has led Clemson in either category since 1997, when righthander Ryan Mottl led the Tigers in both as a freshman.

Dwyer’s Masterful Outing #2 After his complete game against #5 Miami (FL) in the second game of a doubleheader on April 11, he went over a month without a victory. But that all changed against Oklahoma State in the Clem-son Regional on May 31. Facing elimination, the Tigers received a superb effort from the freshman lefthander. In 8.2 innings pitched in a starting role, he allowed just six hits, one run, and one walk with 13 strikeouts to earn the win. It was the most strikeouts by a Tiger in a game since March 20, 1998, when Ryan Mottl struck out 13 in a win over Maryland. It was also the most strikeouts by a Tiger in an NCAA Tournament game since May 31, 1996, when Kris Benson struck out 15 against Miami (FL) in the Col-lege World Series. For his efforts, Dwyer was named to the Clemson Regional All-Tournament team as one of only two pitchers.

Epps Moves Into Leadoff Spot Sophomore outfielder Chris Epps (Stone Mountain, GA) was relegated to a backup role for most of the regular season. But he was inserted, not only into the starting lineup, but into the leadoff spot in the batting order in the April 25 game against #4 Georgia Tech. He helped the Tigers to two wins in the final two games of that series and has batted in the leadoff spot ever since, a total of 21 games. In the last 21 games, all as the designated hitter, he is 27-for-81 (.333) with four doubles, one triple, three homers, 17 RBIs, 23 runs, 12 walks, and six stolen bases to lead Clemson to a 16-5 record. The highlight of his season so far came in the Clemson Regional when he earned tournament MVP honors. In five games, he went 10-for-19 (.526) with one double, two homers, six RBIs, seven runs, and a stolen base to lead the Tigers to the regional title. His two-out, two-run homer on an 0-2 pitch with the Tigers trailing 5-1 in the seventh inning against Oklahoma State in the regional championshiop game started Clemson’s comeback to an eventual 6-5 win. Epps’ forté is finding any way on base. He has walked 25 times in only 119 at-bats this season, good for one walk every 4.76 at-bats, and has a .420 on-base percentage. He has also raised his batting average to .294 and has six doubles, two triples, four homers, 24 RBIs, 31 runs, and nine steals this season. In his career, Epps has walked 55 times in 220 at-bats, meaning he has walked once every 4.00 at-bats during his career. That is the third-best mark in Clemson history.

Freeman on a Roll Junior second-baseman and co-captain Mike Freeman (Orlando, FL) has been on a tear of late. In the last 22 games, he is 38-for-89 (.427) with 25 runs, nine doubles, one triple, two homers, and 21 RBIs. Freeman earned Clemson Regional All-Tournament honors by going 11-for-22 (.500) with three doubles, a triple, homer, seven RBIs, and six runs in five games. He also had a 10-game hitting streak, tied for the longest by a Tiger in 2009, that ended against College of Charleston on May 12. On the season, Freeman is hitting .338 with 16 doubles, five triples, four homers, 44 RBIs, 42 walks, a .424 on-base percentage, and 11 stolen bases. He also has a stellar .981 fielding percentage, as he has committed only six errors in the field.

Harman Continues to Throw Strikes Sophomore lefthander Casey Harman (South Burlington, VT) had a 4.4-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio when he struck out 44 against only 10 walks in 44.0 innings pitched as a freshman in 2008. That strikeout-to-walk ratio is the seventh-best mark in Clemson history for a season. In 2009, he has continued his outstanding ratio, as he has 85 strikeouts against only 14 walks (6.1-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio). Two of those 14 walks have been intentional as well. Despite that fact, he has bested his strikeout-to-walk ratio in 2008, as his 6.1-to-1 mark in 2009 is second-best in a season in school history. Harman also totaled 46 strikeouts against only seven walks in 54.0 innings pitched in ACC regular-season games. Harman has 129 strikeouts against only 24 walks in 125.0 innings pitched in his career. His 5.4-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio is the best mark in Clemson history, while his 1.73 walks-per-nine-innings-pitched mark is the second-best mark in school history. He has allowed 21 career home runs, but 17 have been solo long balls. Harman started the season as a long reliever, but he made his first start of the season against Wake Forest in the second game of a doubleheader on March 13. He allowed just one run in 6.1 innings pitched to earn the win. He also struck out 10 against only one walk in 7.1 innings pitched in the Tigers’ 4-3 win over #4 North Carolina in 11 innings on May 23. In 2009, he has a 7-3 record and 3.78 ERA in 81.0 innings pitched over 21 appearances (12 starts). He narrowly trails fellow lefty Chris Dwyer for the team lead in innings pitched and victories, while his seven wins (along with Graham Stoneburner’s) are the most by a Tiger since 2006.

Ryan Hinson’s Appearances Senior lefthander Ryan Hinson (Rock Hill, SC) is Clemson’s only current player who traveled with the team during its last trip to the College World Se-ries in 2006. In his four years as both a starter and reliever, he has made 84 appearances (27 starts). The 84 appearances are fifth-most in Tiger history. In 2009, he has been a valuable member of the Tiger bullpen. In 27 appearances (two starts), he has a 2-1 record and 3.79 ERA in 38.0 innings pitched. He has also allowed just 33 hits (.229 opponents’ batting average) and 18 walks with 46 strikeouts. That is good for a 10.9 strikeouts-per-nine-innings-pitched mark.

Lamb a Dual Threat Freshman Will Lamb (Seaford, VA) came to Clemson as a dual threat in that he was an out-standing outfielder and pitcher at York High School a season ago. He has continued his dual roles as a Tiger in 2009. In his first significant action on the mound, the lefthander pitched 4.2 innings in relief at #2 North Carolina on March 7. He allowed just one hit (a single) and no runs to keep the Tigers in the game against one of the nation’s best hitting teams. Then in his first career start in the field against Michigan State on March 10, he went 3-for-4 with a walk, two RBIs, and two stolen bases. He also earned his first career save in Clemson’s 4-1 win over Wake Forest in the first game of a doubleheader on March 13.

On the season, Lamb is 15-for-56 (.268) at the plate with eight runs, six RBIs, and four steals in 27 games (11 starts). On the mound, he has allowed 22 hits, five runs (2.05 ERA), and eight walks with 15 strikeouts in 22.0 innings pitched over 14 appear-ances (one start). His versatility is crucial on the road due to the fact that ACC teams are only allowed to have 25 active players on conference road trips and postseason tournaments.

McKinney’s Sidearm Delivery Effective Senior righthander Clinton McKinney (Green-ville, SC) struggled in his first season at Clemson in 2008 when he had a 9.00 ERA in 15 relief appear-ances. But 2009 has been a different story for the sidearm reliever. In 2009, he has provided the Tigers with solid work out of the bullpen. In 23.0 innings pitched over 13 relief appearances, he has a 4.30 ERA and 22 strikeouts against only eight walks. He also owns a 4-0 record, victories against Elon in the first game of a doubleheader on March 24, Duke on April 3, #19 Coastal Carolina on April 21, and N.C. State on May 16. Prior to his outing against Elon, he had only made two relief appearances for a total of 2.0 innings pitched in Clemson’s first 20 games of the season. Against the Phoenix, he pitched 3.0 scoreless innings of two-hit ball with three strikeouts in Clem-son’s 5-3 win. Against the Blue Devils, he allowed just four hits, one unearned run, and no walks with three strikeouts in the final 4.1 innings in the Tigers’ 7-3 win. Against the Chanticleers, he pitched a hitless and scoreless ninth inning with three strike-outs in Clemson’s 5-3 comeback win. Then at N.C. State, he pitched 1.2 perfect innings in relief with a strikeout in the Tigers’ 5-4 victory.

Miller Walking Up the Charts Freshman shortstop Brad Miller (Windermere, FL) has an on-base percentage 135 points than his batting average due to tallying a team-high 53 walks, also tied for most in the ACC. The school record for walks in a season is held by Jason Har-ris and Henrí Stanley, who both had 64 walks in 1999. Overall, Miller is hitting .273 with three hom-ers and 36 RBIs. He has walked 53 times against 32 strikeouts and has a .408 on-base percentage along with a team-high 16 stolen bases.

Nester Solid At & Behind the Plate Like many Tigers that bat near the bottom of the batting order, sophomore catcher John Nester (Greer, SC) has been a big reason Clemson is 19-6 in the last 25 games. He has raised his season bat-ting average to .304 with 10 doubles, five homers, and 33 RBIs in 55 games (44 starts). He shared time behind the plate during the first half of the season, but he has since cemented his role as the everyday catcher of late. In Nester’s last 38 games, he is 42-for-121 (.347) after going 7-for-40 (.175) in his first 17 games of 2009. Nester has shown the ability to throw out po-tential basestealers as well. He has thrown out 10 of the last 25 basestealers (40 percent) and 13 of 40 in all (33 percent).

Parker Showing Power Against the ACC Sophomore outfielder Kyle Parker (Jackson-ville, FL) is hitting .263 with 12 homers, 52 RBIs, and a .455 slugging percentage in 61 games (58 starts) this season. But in his 27 ACC regular-sea-son games, he hit .295 with seven home runs, 23 RBIs, and a .533 slugging percentage. That trend was similar to his numbers as a freshman in 2008, when he hit .303 with 14 hom-ers, 50 RBIs, and a .559 slugging percentage over-all. But in ACC regular-season games, he hit .336 with 10 homers, 34 RBIs, and a .673 slugging per-centage. Therefore, 17 of his 26 career home runs have come in ACC regular-season games even though only 56 of his 118 career games have come in ACC regular-season games. Parker also nearly tied a school record that has stood for 26 years. In a three-game span against #5 Miami (FL) and Western Carolina from April 12-15, he had a hit in eight consecutive official at-bats. He was one hit away from tying the school record for consecutive hits against the Catamounts on April 15, already having registered a 4-for-4 night. In his fifth official at-bat of the game, he lined a ball to the left side of the infield, but it was right at the third baseman for an out. He fell just one hit shy of the Tiger record held by Bob Paulling, who had nine straight hits in 1983. Paulling, like Parker, played both football and baseball at Clemson. But perhaps his best moment of 2009 came in the Clemson Regional against Oklahoma State on June 1. After coming off the bench for just the third time all season, he lined a two-out, two-run single in the eighth inning to give Clemson a 6-5 lead. The Tigers hung on to win by that score and advance to the Tempe Super Regional.

Parker Quickest to 25 Home Runs Sophomore Kyle Parker established a school record when he hit his 11th home run of the sea-son and 25th of his two-year career in the Tigers’ 11-3 win over North Carolina-Wilmington on May 9, 2009. His home run, which went over the “batters’ eye” in centerfield at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, gave him 25 career homers in just 103 games. That long ball established a school record for fewest games to reach 25 career home runs. The previous record was held by Matthew LeCroy, who hit his 25th career long ball in his 105th career game. LeCroy went on to an eight-year career in the Major Leagues in which he hit 60 home runs from 2000-07. LeCroy finished his Tiger career with 53 career home runs, fourth-most in school history.

2009 Clemson Baseball NotesParker’s Two-Sport Day April 11, 2009 is a day Kyle Parker will never forget. At 1:00 PM, he suited up to start for the White squad in Clemson’s Spring Football Game. All he did was complete 13-21 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown against no interceptions along with a rushing touchdown to lead his team to a 30-13 victory in the game that ended at approximately 3:10 PM. But his day was far from over. Since Clemson’s series-opener scheduled for the previous night was rained out, Clemson and #5 Miami (FL) played a doubleheader beginning at 3:34 PM on Saturday. Parker rushed to change out of his football uniform at Memorial Stadium, had to run across the street, then change into his baseball uniform at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. He did not make it in time to be penciled in the starting lineup for the first game, but he came off the bench in the third inning to hit a pinch-hit single to score a run. For that game, he was 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs. Then in the second game of the doubleheader, he was 1-for-3 with a homer, two RBIs, and a walk. Therefore in the double-header, he was 3-for-7 with two home runs and five RBIs. All in a day’s work for Parker. Parker also received ACC Player-of-the-Week honors on April 13 for his efforts in five games from April 7-12. He went 8-for-18 (.444) with two doubles, two homers, 11 RBIs, four runs, and three walks in the five games, two against arch-rival South Carolina and three against the #5 Hurricanes. He had at least one hit and one RBI in all five games (and at least two RBIs in four of the five games) during the week.

Parker Receives Bob Bradley Award Kyle Parker added the Bob Bradley Award to his list of honors on April 22. The award, named after Clemson’s longtime sports information director, is given annually to Clemson’s MVP of the season series against South Carolina. In four games against the Gamecocks, Parker was 6-for-15 (.400) with two doubles, one homer, seven RBIs, four runs, and three walks. In the last of the four meetings in Co-lumbia on April 22, he went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and three runs to lead the Tigers to a 12-2 victory.

Paulsen Leading Tigers in Hitting Junior first-baseman Ben Paulsen (Acworth, GA) is hitting a team-best .369 in 64 games this season. He also has 18 doubles, four triples, 13 homers, 60 RBIs, a .627 slugging percentage, and .436 on-base percentage. He has a team-high 28 multi-hit games, including two four-hit games, 10 three-hit games, and 16 two-hit games. He had one of his best ACC series at Boston College on March 27,28. In three games, he was 6-for-10 with four runs, two triples, one homer, five RBIs, and three walks to lead the Tigers to two wins against the Eagles. The following weekend in the series against Duke, he was 7-for-12 with four runs, two doubles, two homers, and eight RBIs. He also came up big in the Clemson Re-gional. He was 7-for-18 (.389) with two doubles, two homers, five RBIs, five runs, and four walks in five games. For his efforts, he was named to the Clemson Regional All-Tournament team.

Sarratt Pitches Gem Against #1 Georgia Junior righthander Justin Sarratt (Gaffney, SC) toed the rubber against the nation’s top-ranked team in Georgia on April 1 at Doug Kingsmore Stadium and did what few teams did this year...shut down the Bulldog bats. Despite the Tigers losing a ninth-inning lead and eventually falling 4-2, Sarratt pitched a gem against the Bulldogs. For his effort, he was named ACC Pitcher-of-the-Week. In a career-long 8.0 innings pitched, he al-lowed just three hits, one run, and one walk with 12 strikeouts. The 12 strikeouts were the most by a Tiger since April 14, 2001 when Steve Reba struck out 12 against Duke in Clemson’s 10-1 win. In fact, in Sarratt’s previous 47 career appearances, he had never struck out more than four batters in a game. He pitched admirably against a team that entered the week 10th in the nation in scoring and was averaging nearly 10 runs per game. After yielding a double to lead off the game, he retired 17 batters in a row as well. It was not the first time in 2009 that he put on a dominating performance at Doug Kingsmore Sta-dium. As a starter against South Carolina-Upstate on March 18, he pitched 5.0 innings and earned the win in Clemson’s 14-0 no-hit victory. He was a part of the Tigers’ first no-hitter since 1984. On the season, Sarratt is 3-2 with a 5.10 ERA and .256 opponents’ batting average in 42.1 innings pitched over 16 appearances (seven starts). He has also allowed just nine walks with 26 strikeouts, a solid 2.9-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. That number has been consistent with his career strikeout-to-walk ratio. In 101.0 innings pitched over 56 career appear-ances (nine starts), he has allowed just 20 walks with 65 strikeouts. That equates to a 3.3-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio and 1.78 walks-per-nine-innings-pitched mark. His strikeout-to-walk ratio is sixth-best in Clemson history, while his walks-per-nine-innings-pitched mark is third-best in Tiger history.

Schaus Showing His Power & Patience Sophomore outfielder Jeff Schaus (Naples, FL) has 12 home runs and 49 RBIs this year. His power numbers are somewhat of a surprise considering that he only hit three long balls as a freshman in 2008. But all three of those homers came within the last seven games of the season. Of his 15 career home runs, eight have come away from home. His first career homer came at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, while his next eight long balls were hit away from home. His six most-recent long balls have all been hit at home. Schaus proved his value against ACC competi-tion this season. In 30 ACC regular-season games, he hit a team-best .367 with five homers, 19 RBIs, and a team-high .445 on-base percentage while striking out just 10 times in 120 at-bats. Schaus has also displayed a keen eye at the plate, as he has a .433 on-base percentage thanks to 42 walks and five hit-by-pitches against only 28 strikeouts in 239 at-bats in 2009.

Schaus Named First-Team All-ACC Sophomore outfielder Jeff Schaus was named First-Team All-ACC in 2008. The team was compiled by a vote of the 12 ACC head coaches. Schaus

was one of five first-team outfielders and was the lone Tiger to earn First or Second-Team All-ACC honors. Schaus, a graduate of Barron Collier High School in Naples, FL, is hitting .326 with 14 doubles, one triple, 12 homers, 49 RBIs, nine stolen bases and a .433 on-base percentage thanks to tallying 42 walks against only 28 strikeouts in 239 at-bats. Another important reason for his first-team selection is the fact that he hit a team-high .367 with a .445 on-base percentage thanks to 14 walks against only 10 strikeouts in ACC regular-season games.

Schaus Hits Walkoff Grand Slam Jeff Schaus stepped to the plate against #19 Coastal Carolina on April 21 with the Tiger hopes in his hands. With two outs, the bases loaded, and Clemson trailing 3-1, he blasted the first pitch he saw deep over the fence in right field to send the Tigers to a dramatic 5-3 victory on his first career grand slam. It was Clemson’s first win in 2009 when trailing at the end of eight innings. The walkoff homer was also the Tigers’ first since 2007 and the second walkoff grand slam in school history. That was just the beginning of a big week for the Tiger sophomore. In five games that week, four of which were against top-25 teams, he went 10-for-22 (.455) with seven runs, one double, two homers, nine RBIs, and two stolen bases to earn ACC Co-Player-of-the-Week honors. He was also named to the Brooks Wallace Award National All-Star Lineup. Then against Tennessee Tech in the Tigers’ first game of the Clemson Regional on May 29, he hit a two-run double in the ninth inning to give Clemson a 5-4 walkoff win. Therefore, he has two of the Tigers’ four walkoff hits in 2009.

Stolz Providing Punch Freshman Jason Stolz (Marietta, GA) shared time at third base most of the regular season. But of late, he has solidified himself as the everyday starter at the “hot corner.” He also had a 10-game hitting streak to end the regular season. In his last 18 games, he is 19-for-49 (.388) with four doubles, 10 RBIs, 12 runs, seven walks, a .474 on-base percentage, and six stolen bases. Prior to his 10-game hitting streak, he was hitting .277. But he has since raised his batting aver-age to .315. In 55 games (42 starts), he has seven doubles, one homer, 21 RBIs, 29 runs, a team-high six sacrifice bunts, and seven stolen bases along with a solid .960 fielding percentage. Stolz also possesses great speed and a strong arm.

Stoneburner Mowing Them Down Sophomore righthander Graham Stoneburner (Richmond, VA) has been both a starter and reliever in 2009, and he has done well in both roles. Of late, he has served mostly as a long reliever. On the season, he has a 7-3 record, one save, and 3.19 ERA in 19 appearances (seven starts). In 62.0 in-nings pitched, he has allowed just two home runs and 17 walks with 70 strikeouts, good for a 4.1-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio, thanks to his hard fastball. He also has a 2.47 walks-per-nine-innings-pitched mark this year.


12

2009 Clemson Baseball Notes In his career, Stoneburner has 122 strikeouts against only 38 walks in 133.1 innings pitched. His 3.21 strikeout-to-walk ratio is the eighth-best mark in Clemson history.

Captain Vaughn Senior righthander Matt Vaughn is one the Tigers’ two team captains in 2009. Like 2008, he is a co-captain as one of the team’s best leaders, as he has served like a fifth coach on the team. He was also one of 40 players on the NCBWA Stopper-of-the-Year Award Watch List in the preseason and was on the same list on its midseason watch list. “Matt brings to the table a competitive, loyal spirit every single day he comes out to the field,” said Head Coach Jack Leggett in the preseason. “He works extremely hard. He has battled through a couple of injuries that sidelined him for the early part of the season. He’s a tough, hard-nosed com-petitor that loves Clemson and is loyal to our pro-gram. He is a good leader and everyone looks up to him, so he is the right guy for that role.” Vaughn won the Tiger Baseball Award as a junior in 2008. The award is given to the team’s best leader. So it was only fitting that Vaughn be named team co-captain again in 2009. The Summerville, SC native made his 2009 debut on the mound on March 10 against Michigan State when he pitched a perfect ninth inning with two strikeouts. He had shoulder surgery during the offseason and did not make an appearance during the first 10 games of the season. Vaughn has been one of Clemson’s best pitchers of late, as he has made 21 relief appear-ances for a total of 31.1 innings pitched this year. The 2009 Clemson graduate is 4-1 with a team-ty-ing-high four saves and 23 strikeouts and has only allowed four extra-base hits. He also earned a win in both of Clemson’s victories over South Carolina this season. Vaughn now has 16 career saves, tied for fourth-most in Clemson history. On March 18, he capped off one of Clemson’s most memorable games in recent years. Against South Carolina-Upstate at Doug Kingsmore Sta-dium, he pitched a perfect ninth inning with two strikeouts to close out Clemson’s no-hitter, its first since 1984. The Tigers defeated the Spartans 14-0, and he was on the mound when he struck out Eric Guillen for the game’s final out. But perhaps his best moment of 2009 came in the championship game of the Clemson Regional against Oklahoma State on June 1. He pitched the final 3.2 innings without allowing an earned run. He also pitched a scoreless ninth inning and struck out Mark Ginther with two outs and two runners on base to end the game and send Clemson to the Tempe Super Regional.

Weismann Back in the Fold Freshman righthander Scott Weismann (Box-borough, MA) was hampered by arm injuries earlier this season. But he has come on strong of late, as he has made 17 appearances (three starts) for a total of 36.2 innings pitched and has one save along with a 3-1 record. All he has done is allow 26 hits (.206 opponents’ batting average), five earned runs (1.23 ERA), and 15 walks with 28 strikeouts. In the future, Weismann figures to be one of the top candidates to close out games for the Tigers. Clemson has 13 saves, but seven different Tigers have accounted for those 13 saves. Weismann made his first career start at South Carolina on April 22. He was on a pitch count, mean-ing he only pitched 4.0 innings. He allowed just two hits, no runs, and one walk with three strikeouts. The Tigers defeated the Gamecocks 12-2. Then on April 26, he pitched 2.0 scoreless innings of one-hit ball to record his first career save against #4 Georgia Tech. In a start against College of Charleston on May 12, he pitched 5.0 scoreless innings of three-hit ball to earn the victory against one of the nation’s best offensive teams. He also had a 17-scoreless-innings-pitched streak from early March to early May. But perhaps his best outing of the season came against Tennessee Tech in the Clemson Regional on May 31. He pitched 8.0 innings in a starting role, allowing just four hits, no runs, and three walks with two strikeouts to earn the win in Clemson’s 10-0 victory. He allowed just one runner past first base and none past second base.

Six Former Tigers on Major League Rosters Six former Clemson baseball players have been on Major League rosters this year. The list includes Clemson’s two National Player-of-the-Year selections in history, Kris Benson and Khalil Greene, former All-American Jeff Baker, and rookie pitchers Jason Berken, Steven Jackson, and Tony Sipp. Benson is in his first year with the Texas Rang-ers after playing previously with the Pittsburgh Pi-rates, New York Mets, and Baltimore Orioles. He is a veteran of seven seasons but did not play the last two years due to arm problems. He gained a vic-tory for Texas against Baltimore on April 15, his first win since he pitched for Baltimore in September of 2006. Benson won the National Player-of-the-Year award in 1996 when he led Clemson to the College World Series. He finished his Tiger career with 29 wins and 356 strikeouts, as both are in the top five in Clemson history. Greene is a shortstop with the Saint Louis Cardinals. He spent six seasons with the San Di-ego Padres before signing a free-agent contract with the Cardinals prior to this season. Greene was the National Player-of-the-Year during his senior

year at Clemson (2002) and is still first in school history in career RBIs (276), third in batting aver-age (.377), and fifth in home runs (52). Baker is in his fifth season with the Colorado Rockies. Baker, who is tied for the all-time Tiger record with 59 career homers, played for the Rock-ies in the 2007 World Series. Berken, who played at Clemson in 2003, 2004, and 2006, had an 18-6 record and 3.04 ERA in 47 appearances (36 starts). He made his Major League debut with the Baltimore Orioles in a start against the Toronto Blue Jays on May 26. Jackson, who played for Clemson from 2001-04 and had a 19-8 record, was called up to the New York Yankees on April 19 and was later picked up by the Pittsburgh Pirates’ organization. He made his Major League debut on June 1. Sipp was called up to the Cleveland Indians on April 21 and made his Major League debut against Kansas City on April 22. He pitched a per-fect inning in relief and had a strikeout. Sipp batted .280 and had a 2-2 pitching record for the Tigers in 2004.

Jackson Third Former Tiger in MLB in 2009 Former Clemson righthander Steven Jackson made his Major League debut for the Pittsburgh Pi-rates against the New York Mets on June 1, 2009. He made his first appearance just about the time Kyle Parker was knocking in what proved to be the winning runs in Clemson’s 6-5 regional win over Oklahoma State. Jackson came in as a reliever and pitched an inning. He walked one and did not allow a hit in facing four batters, helping the Pirates to a come-from-behind 8-5 win. He was not involved in the decision. Jackson pitched for the Tigers from 2001-04, including the 2002 team that finished tied for third at the College World Series. He had a career record of 19-8 with a 4.62 ERA. He also made 34 starts for the Tigers and pitched in relief in 33 games. Jackson was on the New York Yankees’ ac-tive roster for a week in May, but he did not ap-pear in a game even though he warmed up in the bullpen in at least one game. He was claimed by Pittsburgh and is now on its staff. Jackson joins Tony Sipp and Jason Berken as former Tiger pitchers who have made their Major League debuts this year. Sipp has pitched several times in relief for the Indians, while Berken earned the win in his Major League debut in late May. He became the first former Tiger to win in his Major League debut since Kris Benson did it for the Pi-rates in 1999.

2009 Clemson BoxscoresGame 5 • South Carolina 3, Clemson 1


DeAngelo Mack’s solo homer in the ninth inning gave South Carolina the lead and the Gamecocks held on for a 3-1 win over #19 Clemson at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on February 28. Matt Sanders’ solo homer in the sixth inning tied the score. In the seventh inning, three straight walks loaded the bases for the Tigers with one out. But John Nester grounded into an inning-ending double play to keep the score tied. Then with one out in the ninth inning, Mack’s opposite-field long ball and a Gamecock insurance run later in the frame proved to be the difference. Three Gamecock hurlers limited the Tigers to just two hits and did not allow a Clemson leadoff batter to reach base. Alex Farotto pitched 2.2 hitless and scoreless innings in relief to earn the victory. Tiger reliever Casey Harman pitched 3.1 innings, allowing just one hit, no runs, and no walks with six strikeouts. Four Tiger pitchers combined for 11 strikeouts as well.

March 13, 2009 (Game 1) • Doug Kingsmore Stadium • Clemson, SC

In game-one on March 13, which was the first game of a doubleheader, Kyle Parker hit a two-run home run in the sixth inning to give #22 Clemson the lead for good in its 4-1 win over Wake Forest at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. The Demon Deacons had taken a 1-0 lead in the top of the sixth inning on Shane Kroker’s double that scored Carlos Lopez. But the Tigers responded with three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning thanks to five consecutive hits. Parker, who was 3-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs, added a run-scoring single in the seventh inning. The Tigers outhit Wake Forest 14-8 and had five players with at least two hits, including two hits and two runs by Jeff Schaus. Tomas Cruz pitched 3.0 scoreless innings in relief of two-hit ball to earn the victory, while Will Lamb retired the only batter he faced to record his first career save. Starter Trey Delk also struck out eight batters in 5.2 innings pitched. The three Tiger hurlers combined for 10 strikeouts against only two walks.

Game 26 • Georgia 6, Clemson 5

March 31, 2009 • Foley Field • Athens, GA

Top-ranked Georgia scored four runs in the third inning and held on to defeat #17 Clemson 6-5 at Foley Field on March 31. The Bulldogs scored four runs on six hits, four of which were infield singles, in the fourth inning and held on for the win. Jeff Schaus gave Clemson the lead in the first inning on his solo homer. The Tigers narrowed the margin to one run in the fifth inning on Kyle Parker’s two-run homer and pinch-hitter Chris Epps’ run-scoring double. Parker, who had three RBIs, hit a two-out, run-scoring single in the ninth inning, but it was not enough. Three Tiger relievers combined to allow just two hits, one run, and one walk with eight strikeouts in 5.0 innings pitched.

Game 31 • South Carolina 7, Clemson 6

April 7, 2009 • Carolina Stadium • Columbia, SC

DeAngelo Mack’s two-run single in the ninth inning lifted South Carolina to a 7-6 come-from-behind win over #20 Clemson at Carolina Stadium on April 7. The Tigers took a 6-5 lead with two outs in the seventh inning on John Nester’s run-scoring, infield single. But the Gamecocks put their first two batters on base in the ninth and later loaded the bases before Mack’s sharp single through the right side gave South Carolina the walkoff win. Kyle Parker had a team-high three RBIs, while Ben Paulsen drove in two runs. Tomas Cruz pitched 4.0 stellar innings in relief, allowing just one hit, one run, and no walks with five strikeouts.

Wilson Boyd went 3-for-3 with two RBIs, while Mike Freeman added two hits. The victory was Jack Leggett’s 300th against an ACC team as Clemson’s head coach.

In the Tigers’ first game of the Clemson Regional on May 29, Jeff Schaus’ two-run double in the ninth inning lifted #14 Clemson to a 5-4 walkoff victory over Tennessee Tech at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. The Golden Eagles built a 4-1 lead in the top of the fifth inning before Mike Freeman’s RBI groundout and Schaus’ solo home run in the bottom of the fifth inning cut their lead to 4-3. The Tigers, who put their leadoff batter on base in each of the last seven innings, missed opportunities to tie the score in the sixth, seventh, and eighth innings. Addison Johnson led off the ninth inning with a single before Chris Epps reached on a bunt single. Schaus later ripped a one-out double over first base to score Johnson from second and Epps from first for the winning run. The Tigers had been 0-for-14 with runners in scoring posi-tion in the game prior to Schaus’ walkoff double. Graham Stoneburner pitched 4.2 scoreless innings in relief of two-hit ball with five strikeouts against no walks to earn the victory. The Tiger defense totaled four double plays as well.

In the Tigers’ second game of the Clemson Regional on May 30, Neil Medchill’s two-out, run-scoring single in the eighth inning propelled Oklahoma State to a 3-2 win over #14 Clemson at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. Tom Belza and Mark Ginther hit back-to-back solo home runs in the seventh inning to give Oklahoma State a 2-0 lead, then the Tigers responded with two runs thanks to four hits in a row in the top of the eighth inning. But Clemson left the bases loaded and Medchill’s run-scoring single off first-baseman Ben Paulsen’s glove that plated Michael Dabbs proved to be the difference. Clemson out-hit the Cowboys 8-5, including two hits and one double apiece by Mike Freeman and Paulsen. Tiger starter Casey Harman allowed just three hits, two runs, and two walks with eight strikeouts in 6.1 innings pitched.
