DURHAM, N.C. (AP) - Nate Frieman's school-record 43rd home run
started a six-run sixth inning that carried Duke past Clemson 10-4
on Friday in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament.
Alex Hassan had a two-run single and Jake Lemmerman added a
run-scoring triple during the burst for the seventh-seeded Blue
Devils (35-23), who eliminated the Tigers (39-19) from contention
for Sunday's championship game.
Lemmerman also homered and drove in three runs, Hassan added
three RBIs and Frieman's drive over the Blue Monster in left-center
field was his 20th of the season and set the Duke career record.
He helped the Blue Devils win an ACC tournament game for the
first time since 2004.
