CLEMSON — In a way, the more than 5,000 fans that made their way into Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Wednesday were a part of history.
While fourth-ranked Clemson took care of business on the baseball diamond, beating Gardner-Webb 4-2, the bigger story just might have been what was happening in the stands. For the first time ever, beer was sold inside the stadium, something head coach Erik Bakich teased before the start of the season.
While Bakich already loves the atmosphere inside the stadium, he also believes there’s another level that can be reached. On more than one occasion, the third-year head coach has broached the subject of a more rowdy, more intimidating environment, something he believes beer sales could help accomplish.
