1993 - USC swept Vanderbilt in a doubleheader behind the starting pitching of Matt Threehouse and Rich Pratt. Threehouse won the opener, allowing one run in six innings before turning it over to Scott Pace, who put up three scoreless innings of relief. Leadoff man Mark Gugino scored three times while CF Mac White and 3B Mike McGuire each drove in a pair of runs as Carolina scored one in the first, two in the third, one in the fifth and one in the eighth for a 6-1 win. Pratt was dominant in the second, a seven inning game that USC won 4-0. Pratt scattered six hits, all singles, while striking out 11 and walking none. Shortstop Joe Biernat provided the fireworks on offense with a double, home run and all four runs batted in.
