Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Travelers
The USC Travelers outlasted Adrián Casas and the Notre Dame Evangelists, 8-6. Casas was impressive in the loss. The Notre Dame right fielder went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Ken Baker earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2.2 innings. He upped his record to 1-0. Notre Dame now has a record of 2-7.

USC used a timely hit from Rod Irwin to get the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Travelers ahead, 8-6. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it made an impact.

In postgame comments to the USC Daily, Irwin said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
