Clemson faced adversity with its back against the wall, and down a run, to rival South Carolina in the seventh inning on Sunday at Doug Kingsmore Stadium.
But the Tigers bounced back with a breakthrough seventh inning to claim the 5-2 victory and a fifth series win in the last six seasons over their in-state rival.
In the sixth inning, Clemson (9-2) squandered an opportunity to take control of the game with the bases loaded and no outs. South Carolina got out of the inning without allowing a run thanks to a double play as a result of replay.
