Clemson roars back to take game one from Florida State 7-2
Top-ranked Florida States 2-0 lead after four and a half innings seemed promising as No. 1 starter Brandon Leibrandt was cruising along.
But the Tigers of Clemson roared back in a big way scoring seven runs in their next three innings at the plate to knock of the ACCs best team 7-2.
The Tigers were efficient offensively scoring seven runs on nine hits and only leaving four runners on the bases. The Seminoles, by contrast, were not as much.

Top Ranked Florida State Travels to Clemson: Series Preview – Tomahawk Nation
The consensus number one ranked team in the country is looking to bounce back from losing two of their last three games. After losing the series finale on Monday night they traveled to Stetson for two games. Florida State played the first game extremely close with the Hatters until the 8th inning where they scored seven runs en route to a 9-1 final. Wednesday nights game was ugly to say the least, another poor appearance by Peter Miller and SIX errors by the Noles defense resulted in a 6-5 defeat, the first one run loss of the season. Florida State was due for some losses and the fact that they came so close together and one was on national television probably made the casual fan think less of this team. The Seminoles are still one of the best teams in the country this season and have already locked up a National Seed. Whether or not that is the number one overall depends on the next two series for the Noles.

Error-riddled game costs ‘Noles
It’s not every day that Florida State finishes a game with more errors than runs.
But that’s exactly what happened on Wednesday afternoon in DeLand. The Seminoles finished with six errors in their 6-5 defeat to the Hatters and even out-hit their opponents 10-9.
Big ninth inning propels FSU to 40th win of the season
Florida States midweek swing to Stetson appeared on a course for the dramatics on Tuesday, but a seven-run ninth for the Seminoles eliminated any intrigue as the final score finished 9-1.
With the bases loaded and just one out, a wild pitch scored Jayce Boyd from third. After the Hatters intentionally walked Seth Miller to create force outs, Jose Brizuela came through with an infield single for another run.
Sherman Johnson really broke things open with a two-run single through the right side scoring Giovanny Alfonzo and Miller for runs three and four of the inning.
They werent done yet.
