USC Trojans (2-0) 2 0 1 0 0 0 2 1 0 6 13 1
TCU Horned Frogs (1-1) 0 0 0 1 0 3 0 0 0 4 8 1
Trojans Subdue TCU, 6-4
Despite a fine performance by center fielder Casey Watkins, the TCU Horned Frogs suffered a 6-4 loss to the USC Trojans. Watkins went 2 for 4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. USC reliever Josh Giordano picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Adam Shelton shouldered the loss. Justin Derby locked down his 2nd save.

It could have been a different outcome for USC, had it not been for Jim Iler, the 19-year old center fielder . Iler contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth inning to put USC up, 6-4.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Iler. "And not try to do too much."

USC, at 2-0, is off to a blistering start.
