Assistant Sports Editor tl
The USC baseball team defeated t
Clemson 4-3 Wednesday night in
Clemson for the first time since 1985. H
The Gamecocks (30-12) had lost 14 n
straight in Clemson (40-10) before
this year. USC won three of four lc
games this season from the Tigers. H
"It's been a long time since we won fc
two games up here," coach June
Raines said.
Rob DeBoer and Mac White each fe
had home runs in the game. DeBoer
hit his third home run of the season D
in the top of the first inning, giving hi
the No. 20 Gamecocks an early 2-0 K
lead. White's solo home run in the
eighth, which gave USC a 4-0 lead, M
proved to be the game-winning run. in
The homer was White's fifth of the ai
season. b;
The No. 4 Tigers were one strike te
from being shut out. With two out st
and two strikes on designated hitter te
Andy Monin, Gamecock ace reliever
Craig Ross gave up a three-run home p
run to Monin, putting Clemson within
one run of the Gamecocks. w
Ross was able to earn his ninth save H
of the year by getting Mike Eydenberg 01
to ground out to shortstop Ryan Swejbka
to close out the inning and the h
game. re
Jason Haynie started the game for oi
USC. He pitched six scoreless innings, ir
walking six and striking out four, w

[aynie improved to 8-4. He only had c
iree flyball out, getting 10 Tiger haters
to ground out. f
"There's a lot of luck involved," t
[aynie said. "I got through the big in- .
ings." (
Clemson starter Bill Koch took the
>ss for the Tigers, dropping to 3-1. r
e pitched seven innings, giving up f
>ur runs on five hits. He struck out ^
3 and walked three.
Clemson's infield gave the USC of- '
:nse the chance to put runs on the
sard. In the fifth, with one out, Mike
ezenzo singled to left. Gugino then
it the ball back to Koch, who threw t
> second for a possible double play, i
Clemson second baseman Eric De[oura
misplayed the ball, and it went p
ito centerfield. With runners on first a
id third, Stacey Stokes hit a return (
all to Koch, and again the Tigers at:mpted
to turn two. This time, short- \
op Seth Brizek dropped the ball af- p
:r getting the runner at second. 2
Dezenzo scored from third on the
lay, and Stokes reached first.
The Tigers, who six hits on the day,
ere led by third baseman Mike
ampton. He had two hits and scored
ne run on Monin's home run. ?
With the exception of Monin's
ome run off Ross, the Gamecocks' ^
ilieve pitchers shut down the Tiger c
ffense. J.J. Pearsall relieved Haynie r
i the seventh. He struck out one and a
alked one, but he did not allow a hit i
