Trojans Continue Hot Start to Season With Win
The USC Trojans topped the TCU Horned Frogs, 8-4, in Rod Dedeaux League action at Nesquehoning College Fields. The standout performance belonged to USC pitcher and Garden Grove, California, native Steve Saeger. In 5 innings, Saeger surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 2. He allowed 3 runs. Randy Stucki got credit for the save for USC. It was his 4th of the year.

The Horned Frogs had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Trojans going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 18-year old first baseman Brian Mattox came to the plate. Mattox hit a 2-run home run on a 2-2 sinker from TCU hurler Dan Gardner. It was Mattox's 1st home run of the year.

"I thought Steve threw the ball well across the board," said USC manager Bryan Fulcher.

The Trojans raised their record to 15-6.
