10-4



Yep- it was a big "10-4" this morning at JAX when Clem's Son radiod in a
big thrashing to the Joltin' Jackets. Guess our guys were wore out from
two nail biters earlier in the Tournament.

We now go home and await the NCAA verdict...tournament? host? EOS?

Stay tuned.

Yellow Jackets Close ACC Tournament With 10-4 Loss To Clemson

Seventh-inning grand slam lifts Tigers to win over Georgia

May 24, 2008

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Ben Paulsen's grand slam in the top of the seventh
inning helped lift No. 8 seed Clemson to a 10-4 ACC Baseball Tournament
win over No. 5 seed Georgia Tech Saturday at the Baseball Grounds of
Jacksonville.

Neither Tech (39-19) or Clemson (31-27-1) will not play in Sunday's ACC
championship game - Miami or NC State will play Virginia in that contest
- but the Yellow Jackets and Tigers were playing for much more than a
consolation prize Saturday. Tech remains in search of its 40th win of
the season and still has hopes of hosting an NCAA regional next week.
Clemson's win Saturday may go a long way toward the Tigers' chances of
receiving an NCAA Tournament bid.

The Yellow Jackets and Tigers entered the seventh inning tied, 3-3, when
the bottom fell out for Tech. Clemson used two walks from reliever Zach
Von Tersch and a Georgia Tech error to load the bases with no outs,
setting the stage for Paulsen's towering, game-winning blast.

"That was certainly not what we wanted to do down here today," head
coach Danny Hall said. "It seems like the last two games, every time
we've made a mistake we've given up a home run. We made it easier for
them by walking people and we had a hard time getting the big hit
ourselves."

Georgia Tech closed the game to 7-4 - and missed a golden opportunity to
pull even closer - in the bottom of the seventh. After loading the bases
with no outs, Charlie Blackmon, who singled to lead-off the inning,
scored. But Tiger reliever Casey Harman got Tech's Tony Plagman to
ground into a double play, ending the Yellow Jacket threat.
