CLEMSON – Sorry Gamecock baseball players, no ice cream for you.
Tiger pitcher Carson Spiers grew up in the state of South Carolina and is a legacy athlete at Clemson. His cousin Will Spiers is a punter (and now a backup quarterback this spring) on the Clemson football team. His father, Michael, his uncle Bill and his grandfather Bud all played baseball for the Tigers. Spiers grew up in the rivalry and he understands what it means to the state of South Carolina.
He pitched the final two innings of Sunday’s series finale against the Gamecocks, recording his fourth save of the season as Clemson won the series 2-1.
