.296 Clemson is batting .296 with runners in scoring position on the season.  As I always say, average is called average for a reason, but the fact remains that without the Tigers 32 for 74 series with RISP against Hartford, the Tigers are batting .225 with RISP in the other 13 games.

Worse than that is a two game trend of not getting many men in scoring position.  In Sunday’s loss to Northeastern, Clemson only had two at-bats with runners in scoring position and on Tuesday they were limited to 10 opportunities and only six after Bryar Hawkins run scoring single in the third inning.
