CLEMSON, S.C. – Travis Marr pitched 3.1 scoreless innings in relief to lead No. 8 Clemson to an 8-3 victory over Boston College at Doug Kingsmore Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Eagle starter Brian Rapp (2-3) suffered the loss, as he gave up four runs on five hits in 4.0 innings pitched.

The Eagles scored single runs in the second, third and fourth innings to take a 3-2 lead. In the fifth inning, the Tigers retook the lead with three runs, capped by Seth Beer’s solo homer. It was his 10th of the year and fourth game in a row with a long ball. Jordan Greene added a solo homer in the seventh inning, his first of the season and second of his career, then Bryce Teodosio lined a two-run double in the eighth inning.
