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.

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.
