as many starts, as Carolina
sneaked by the Western Carolina
Catamounts, 1-0. The freshman
righthander turned in another
impressive performance, striking
out 11 batters, walking two, while
scattering five hits, all singles. No
Western Carolina baserunner was
allowed to reach second base
during the contest, due partly to
USC's fine play in the field,
especially catcher Drew Choate,
who foiled two base stealing at
tempts.
The lone run of the game carne
about in the third frame. USC's
Tommy Moody stroked a two-out
single to left. Bass then followed
with a double down the left field
line, chasing Moody to third. John
Gambrell then laced what was an
apparent two-run single, also to
left. However, it was ruled that
curtesy-runner Robie Rogers,
running for Bass, had not touched
third on his way around, and was
the final out of the inning. The run
stood up, as Bass lifted the
Carolina record to 5-3, snapping a
two game losing streak.
Second baseman Moody showed
signs of breaking out of his season
lons batting slump, going three for
three, with two solid singles to left.
Moody also swiped two bases,
