Clemson vs. Wake Forest Baseball Predictions
Wake Forest has been steamrolling the competition lately and should be able to continue doing so here. Both teams are going to need some length out of their starting pitchers here, as they have used four different relievers. Aidan Knaak has done well on the mound for Clemson, but after that, the bullpen takes a little bit of a nose dive.
Wake Forest is trying to remain hot as it is a few games over .500 in terms of conference play and has been able to hit very well against Clemson in the first two games of the series. On Saturday alone, the Demon Deacons kept getting on base with 12 hits and six walks, and that is going to continue here.
All in all, go with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons to pull off a three-game sweep of the Clemson Tigers.
Prediction: Wake Forest Demon Deacons -110
