Tigers rally early with 8-run second inning to roll over Spartans

Clemson -- Erik Bakich’s boys just keep the hot hand rolling.

Clemson’s early season triumphs continue to mount, with a 12-5 victory against UNC Greensboro. The Tigers (11-1), who notched a seventh-straight win, were propelled by standout performances from Andrew Ciufo, Jarren Purify and Jacob Hinderleider, who all knocked in three runs for the Tigers.

The first serious threat posed came from the Spartans, who put runners on first and third with two outs. Gordon worked an 0-2 count against Mitchell Smith, but the catcher slapped a single into left field to drive in the game's first run.
