The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down another strong week of action for USC baseball despite the Trojans suffering their first loss of the season in the midst of Midwestern snowstorm. They also talk with the conductor of USC's elite production on the mound, pitching coach Sean Allen, about how his hurlers have been able to have so much success this season. Allen discusses how the Trojans attacked a stretch with eight games in nine days and how his pitchers continue to grow throughout the season with Grant Govel unleashing a slider in his last start and Mason Edwards' continued nastiness with a breaking ball he changed during the offseason. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' five-game week noting three positives, including the continued success of the starting pitching despite Edwards finally giving up his first run of the season. They also look at the unusual circumstances that contributed to the Trojans having their program-record-tying 19-game win streak snapped. Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans' stand in the rankings -- making a big jump up to No. 13 in the D1Baseball top 25 -- and previewing another five-game week for Andy Stankiewicz's squad.
