If Clemson was going to force a seventh and final game in the Clemson Regional, it was going to need a great pitching performance from Tyler Jackson and then someone else to step up and make a few plays as well.
That’s exactly what the Tigers got in their 6-0 victory over Vanderbilt on Sunday night in Game 6.
With his team’s season on the line, Jackson, a graduate transfer from USC-Upstate, was magnificent. The righty kept Vanderbilt off-balance all night long with his fastball and an occasional breaking ball, limiting the Commodores to three hits in a complete game shutout.
