CLEMSON - Clemson's reputation as the "cardiac cats" certainly never puts them out of the fight.
Stanford's late home run in the ninth ensured it wouldn't be added to that list of improbable comebacks. Clemson had too much ground to overcome in the final stages of Sunday's action, falling to the Cardinal 11-6.
Clemson moves to 33-6 (11-4 ACC), with the loss snapping an eight-game winning streak.
LHP B.J. Bailey’s start on the mound got off to a rough start very quickly. He surrendered back-to-back doubles facing his first two batters.
Then, Stanford’s Jimmy Nati drilled a two-run homer, giving the Cardinal an early 3-0 edge before most fans settled in the seats.
