Quiet Jimmy Obertop lets his bat do the talking

CLEMSON – Don’t expect Jimmy Obertop to do a lot of talking about his homers or his game. He lets his bat do all the talking.

Obertop is a graduate senior transfer catcher/first baseman who played four years at Michigan. As a member of the Michigan team from 2020-23, Obertop hit .266 with 84 runs, 22 doubles, 29 homers, 97 RBIs, a .493 slugging percentage, a .370 on-base percentage and two steals in 134 games (130 starts) in his career.

Obertop homered three times in Saturday’s series finale against Pitt, a 9-2 victory that gave the Tigers a series win.
