CLEMSON – Erik Bakich is ready for all of his rowdy friends in Doug Kingsmore Stadium this spring.
Clemson’s head coach met with the media Thursday to preview the upcoming season and noted the changes inside the Tigers’ home field.
The visitor’s bullpen has been moved out of its previous home – an enclosed section just outside of the visiting dugout – and has been moved into foul territory along the left field line. All of foul territory is now synthetic turf, allowing the coaches the ability to supervise drills.
“We had those concrete wings that would get dirty and look terrible and the natural grass, it was a high traffic area, and it would get worn out,” Bakich said.
