Former Tiger announces transfer to South Carolina |
A former Clemson outfielder is switching sides in the Palmetto State rivalry.
Rising junior and Latta native Dylan Brewer announced on Monday that he will be a Gamecock. "Proud and excited to be furthering my baseball and academic career @GamecockBasebll!!" Brewer said on Twitter. Brewer played in 46 games and started 39 this season, hitting .208 with four home runs, 24 RBIs and a .338 slugging percentage. Before this season, he was a career .215 hitter with a .417 slugging percentage and .350 on-base percentage in 65 games (63 starts). Brewer went 0-for-10 with one run, one RBI and two walks in Clemson's series sweep of the Gamecocks this year. He had two RBIs in a 2020 win over the Gamecocks at Fluor Field. “My main thing is I just want to play ball,” Brewer told The Big Spur. “I just feel like I haven’t played the way I can play. I’ve done well against Carolina in the rivalry series because I go out there, just kind of say to myself, ‘Screw everything, I want to win.’ Other times, I can put unnecessary stress on myself and I just want to get back to being a confident guy and focusing on winning.” Proud and excited to be furthering my baseball and academic career @GamecockBasebll !! pic.twitter.com/ZGA7TvjGqH
