Live Updates: Virginia Tech Baseball vs Clemson, ACC Tournament Second Round Score
The Hokies did not have it all their way despite what looked (by the scoreline at least) an assured win over the Cardinal yesterday in what was a 7-4 Virginia Tech victory.
Yet, it is a stronger challenge on the docket today for the Hokies. The No. 5 Clemson Tigers will be batting fresh as this is their first bout in this year's edition of the ACC Tournament. Tech, meanwhile will be playing their second game in as many days after their 11 hits they tallied yesterday afternoon.
