After some late-inning heroics Friday night in the series opener, the Florida State baseball team is going for a big series win Saturday night.

The No. 5 Seminoles (32-9, 13-6 in ACC) play Game 2 of their series vs. No. 3 Clemson (36-11, 13-9) at Dick Howser Stadium (6 p.m. on ESPN2) Saturday night after a dramatic 6-5 win in 11 innings Friday night.

Needing one more win to take the series, FSU will turn to redshirt junior LHP Joey Volini (8-1, 2.65 ERA) on the mound for his 11th start of the season. Clemson will start sophomore RHP Drew Titsworth (4-1, 3.62 ERA over 32.1 innings) for his third start of the season.

After James Hankerson Jr. and Nathan Cmeyla each had big hits in Friday's win, they are getting starts in the second game of the Clemson series. Hankerson is DHing and hitting eighth while Cmeyla is catching and hitting ninth.
