The season was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. On March 12, it was announced that the 2020 NCAA tournament would be canceled due to the pandemic.[2] Clemson University suspended all events until April 5, 2020.[3] On March 17, the ACC cancelled all spring athletic activities and thereby ended the baseball season.[4] The Tigers finished the season 14–3 and 3–0 in ACC play.

Previous season

In 2019, the Tigers finished the season 4th in the ACC's Atlantic Division with a record of 35–26, 15–15 in conference play.
