USC Baseball Loses First Game Of Season

When it was announced USC would play a doubleheader today, that didn’t bode well for the Trojans’ undefeated season.

After winning the first game, 2-0, the Trojans lost the second game, 2-1, with the late innings played in snow flurries. This was worse weather than Lincoln Riley ever endured in the Big Ten.

USC’s 19-game winnng streak tied the longest in program history.

The pitching was excellent this weekend and we are heading to a showdown April 3-5 when USC plays No. 1-ranked UCLA. This will show just how good USC really is.

  • As expected, USC received a commitment today from five-star athlete Honor Fa’alave-Johnson from San Diego Cathedral Catholic High School.

He is projected as a safety but with his speed, I would like to see him on offense.

    1. Yeah, don’t go with the philosophy of the last successfull coach we had, who always put his best athletes on defense.

      Let’s keep going with Riley’s failed methods.

    1. Hey lunchbag the record was 19 – 0 before the loss 1 – 2 in the 2nd game of the DH….

      BTW check this pearl from ‘the peckerwood’ he gave to ‘Valerie Kondos Field’ after 9/11

      “She’d had plans to hold a team meeting that morning aimed at setting the team on the right course for the year ahead by diving into hard-core practice. But with the terrorist attack news so fresh, she figured that idea was out the window. She phoned the ultra-experienced Wooden for his advice about what she could possibly say on this horrific day that might be inspirational to her team.

      “Listen to your heart,” Wooden said.”

      …..says is all doesn’t it? like ‘….keep shooting for the stars!’ ‘….never give up!’
      ‘…..I paid last time…’

      Here’s my favorite ‘Sam Gilbert? Never heard the name before….”

      1. Wooden not knowing about Gilbert is about as believable as Joe’s inner circle not knowing about his dementia long before he was in office.
