The Clemson baseball team suffered its first loss of the season Tuesday night in a 5-3 game against East Tennessee State.
Though the Tigers got off to one of their best starts in several years- winning their first seven- there were concerns about the lack of offensive production in each of those games. Through the first eight, Clemson has yet to score more than six runs in a ballgame (a 6-2 win over Liberty) and the Tigers haven’t scored more than three runs against any opponent not named Liberty to begin the season.
Now, Clemson will face its toughest test of the season in the form of in-state rival South Carolina.
