Clemson baseball roasted by social media for embarrassing season-ending loss to Kentucky
Clemson baseball roasted by social media for embarrassing season-ending loss to Kentucky Clemson baseball's 2025 season ended with an ugly 16-4 loss to the Kentucky Wildcats Sunday at the Clemson Regional of the NCAA Tournament at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. From No. 2 in the Coaches Poll and top 25 rankings just six weeks earlier to being one of the first host seeds to be eliminated on its home field in the 64-team tournament in regional play, the Tigers' once-promising season ended in colossal disappointment. The Tigers, who close the year at 45-18 overall, committed four errors in the first four innings and would finish with seven for the day. The offense never got a big rally going after grabbing a quick 2-0 lead in the first inning against a Kentucky (31-25) team that entered the tournament just five games over .500 for the year and finished 13th out of 16th in the SEC. RELATED: Live updates from Clemson vs. Kentucky Jarren Purify totaled four of the Tigers' nine hits in the loss, and Cam Cannarella got a nice ovation from the home crowd in what's expected to be his final at-bat in a Clemson uniform. If so, the junior outfielder ends his college career with a 22-game hitting streak. But it was the Tigers' pitching staff and defense (lack thereof) that was the big story. Clemson pitching allowed 16 runs on 13 hits, and the Tigers' College World Series drought will now reach 15 years after another disappointing NCAA tournament exit. Here's how Clemson fans and media reacted to the Tigers' demise on social media.
