COLUMBIA — Clemson grabbed the lead in the first inning in Game 2 against South Carolina at Segra Park in Columbia.
Davis Sharpe, the Tigers’ starting pitcher, helped his own cause when he drove Elijah Henderson home with a ground ball to second base. Henderson led off the inning with walk and then moved to second thanks to a base hit from Kier Meredith on the next at-bat.
Both Henderson and Meredith moved up after a wild pitch from South Carolina starter Thomas Farr. Henderson then scored on Sharpe’s grounder to second base for the first out of the inning.
