CLEMSON - Thomas Brittle's RBI single with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning scored Tyler Slaton to give Clemson a 3-2 victory over Charleston Southern at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Tuesday. The Tigers moved to 21-17 on the season. Charleston Southern fell to 14-25.

The Tigers held a 2-0 lead until Charleston Southern plated two runs in the sixth inning to tie the score. The Buccaneers put two runners on base in the seventh, eighth, and ninth innings, but Clemson relievers worked out jams each time.

With two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, Brittle singled through the left side. Slaton scored standing up to give Clemson its second walkoff win in the last five days.

Patrick Andrews (1-2), the last of five Tiger pitchers, earned his first career victory. The freshman righthander from Hilton Head Island gave up one hit and no runs in 0.2 innings pitched.

Clemson will travel to College Park, MD to take on Maryland in a three-game series starting Friday at 6:00 PM.
