CLEMSON - Pitching in his last regular-season game at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, senior righthander David Haselden pitched a career-long 7 2/3 innings and gave up only two runs to lead Clemson to a 9-2 win over Furman on Tuesday night.

The Tigers improved to 32-21, while the Paladins dropped to 23-29.

Clemson came back from a 2-0 deficit by scoring five runs in the third inning to take the lead for good.

Haselden (4-1) made his first start since March 7 and earned the win. He yielded eight hits, two runs, and four walks with five strikeouts. Mike Kent pitched the final 1 1/3 innings without allowing a run.

Phil Pohl, another senior who was playing his last regular-season game at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, led the Tigers at the plate with his two-run homer.  Jon McGibbon added two RBI, while Richie Shaffer scored a game-high two runs.

Clemson will travel to Winston-Salem, NC to take on Wake Forest in a three-game series starting Thursday at 6:00 PM.
