LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. Nike React Sale Nz . -- Clemson enjoyed every bit of its highest-scoring game in seven years.Avry Holmes scored 22 points, Jaron Blossomgame added 17 and Clemson defeated Davidson 95-78 on Thursday in the opening game of the Tire Pros Invitational.It was Clemsons best point total since scoring 102 against Winthrop on Nov. 23, 2009. Gabe DeVoe added 16 for the Tigers (2-0), who shot 52 percent.I think we have a good team, Tigers coach Brad Brownell said. I think we have more balance than weve had in several years. ... Because of that, I think were a little tougher matchup and that was evident today by five guys in double figures.Donte Grantham and Sidy Djitte each scored 12 for the Tigers.Peyton Aldridge scored 22 points for Davidson (1-1), which went 11 for 40 from 3-point range. Jack Gibbs, who was sixth nationally in scoring at 23.7 points per game last season, scored 18 for the Wildcats.Gibbs didnt play in Davidsons opener because of a shoulder issue, and wore a protective sleeve on his left shoulder Thursday.I dont feel limited, Gibbs said. I just have to go out there, be a leader and do a better job of getting our team to do the things we do in practice. If it doesnt start with me and Peyton, theres no one else on the team thats going to start it.Davidson started off hot from 3-point range, making 6 of its first 10. But the Wildcats missed their next 16 from beyond the arc, and fell into a double-digit-sized hole that they couldnt escape the rest of the way.You start out making 3s, all of a sudden its like a poison because now you think you can make 3s, Davidson coach Bob McKillop said. The nature of our team is to go inside-out, but the demon of making those early 3s hung around our heads quite a bit.BIG PICTUREClemson: Grantham is now one shy of 100 3-pointers for his Clemson career, after making two on Thursday. ... Clemson got hit with a first-half technical because Legend Robertin was in the scorebook as wearing No. 0 -- he wears No. 00, and the penalty for that is whats called an administrative technical.Davidson: The Wildcats grabbed 20 offensive rebounds. ... Backup forward Nathan Ekwu played about 7 minutes, scored no points, took no shots -- and fouled out for the 15th time in his career.PROTECT THE BALLClemson isnt giving opponents any extra help so far this season.The Tigers have 16 turnovers, total, through the first two games -- and their opponents, Georgia and now Davidson, have turned those into only 11 points. Clemson had a 21-4 edge in points off turnovers Thursday, that 17-point margin also being the difference in the final score.UP NEXTClemson: No. 11 Xavier, which edged Missouri 83-82 in OT, in the semifinals Friday.Davidson: Missouri in the consolation semifinals Friday.

DETROIT -- For most of the Boston Red Sox, Sunday was a day to forget.It wasnt a great success -- they lost 10-5 to the Detroit Tigers -- but rookie Andrew Benintendi is going to remember it for a long time.Benintendi struck out in his last at-bat Friday night, then went 0 for 3 with three whiffs on Saturday. When Justin Verlander got him again in the third inning on Sunday, he knew he needed to fix something.When you strike out five straight times, you have time to think about how the pitchers are attacking you, he said. I thought I had a pretty good idea what I should be expecting.Benintendi led off the sixth inning with a triple off Verlander, the first of his career.Then in the seventh, Benintendi connected for his first home run, a drive off Shane Greene.That was pretty cool, especially because my family was here to see it, he said. I wasnt sure it was going to get out until I saw J.D. (Martinez) give up on it. After that, I just wanted to run fast enough to avoid any trouble. You cant jog on your first one.John Farrell thought the two big hits were one of Bostons few bright spots.Its always good to see a kid hit his first homer, because it gets that off their mind, Farrell said. We know this is a young man with a lot of talent, and hes going to keep hitting.Benintendi didnt have a chance of keeping up with Justin Upton, though.Upton broke out of a slump with a pair of three-run homers.This was a good day, he said. Its my brothers birthday, Mom and Dad are here and my wife and kid are here, Upton said.The Tigers won for just the fourth time in 14 games, and went 2-5 on their stay at Comerica Park. Boston has lost just two of its last 10.Martinez had a pair of doubles for the Tigers.Verlander (13-7) allowed one run on three hits inn six innings before being pulled with a nine-run lead.

He is 6-1 in his last 10 starts.Henry Owens (0-1) didnt find out he was pitching until late Saturday night and didnt arrive in Detroit from Triple-A until the early morning hours. He gave up eight runs on six hits and five walks in five innings.Eduardo Rodriguez was expected to return from a hamstring injury to pitch, but felt discomfort during Saturdays game, so Owens was summoned from Pawtucket.The Red Sox scored four times off Greene in the seventh, including Benintendis two-run homer.In his last scheduled game in Detroit, David Ortiz hit a 111-mph drive down the right-field line in the first. Instead of settling for his usual single, he took second on Martinez, leading to a joking exchange between the Red Sox star and Verlander after the inning.Weve had a lot of battles, Verlander said. That was just one of them.Ortiz batted for the final time in the eighth and received long standing ovations both before and after he grounded out. He tipped his cap to the crowd as he walked off.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: INF Devin Marrero was optioned back to Pawtucket to clear room for Owens.LAST PRESENT FOR BIG PAPIWhile the Tigers presented Ortiz with a large framed photo set on Saturday, he got another gift from his friends on the team on Sunday. Before the game, he was showing off a custom-made Venezuelan guitar that was decorated with scenes from his playing career.UP NEXTRed Sox: Boston travels to Tampa Bay on Monday, with former Ray David Price (11-8, 4.19) facing his old team in the opener.
