FSU’s five-game winning streak has come against No. 23 Florida, a three-game sweep of No. 9 Louisville and Wednesday’s 6-5 win over No. 25 Georgia Southern in 11 innings. FSU trailed most of the game to the Eagles, but the Noles scored two runs in the eighth inning and tied the game on Jordan Carrion’s two-run double in the bottom of the ninth.

Tyler Martin ended the game with a bases-loaded walk. Over the past two games, Carrion is hitting 7-for-8 with five runs, five RBI and three walks drawn.

Clemson enters the weekend having won four of five over the past week. They won both midweek games against Georgia and East Tennessee State after taking two-of-three from Wake Forest last weekend.
