College Baseball - Who Is The Best Ever?
By Jordan Dunham, Thu Dec 8th
The University of Southern California has a baseball team, theTrojans. The USC Trojans are undoubtedly one of the very bestcollege baseball teams to every play the game. Over 95 of thebaseball players from the college level who've made it into theMajor Leagues played for the USC Trojans. USC has also appearedin 21 College World Series events and has won the most games inthe this event as well, 70 in total. The USC Trojans are also one of the oldest college baseballteams. The Trojans played their very first university baseballgame in 1889 on the college campus. Unfortunately, the collegeteam lost this game which may account for the fact that therearen't any recorded games until 1892. This time, the Universityof Southern California Trojans won against
the Woodbury BusinessCollege by a score of 14-3. The USC Trojans had a total of 20players on their college baseball squad that year and finishedit as an undefeated squad. The very next year the Trojans played 10 games during thecollege baseball season. However, the USC baseball team appearedto have not played very much over the next four years with only3 college games being recorded.
Between 1898 and 1902, the USC Trojans baseball team sufferedone bad season after another. In 1902 this changed with thearrival of pitcher Rube Waddell, one of the stars of collegebaseball at the time who eventually went on to become a Hall ofFame inductee after playing on 4 different Major League teams.He was, without a doubt, responsible for the upturn in fortuneof the Trojans college baseball team. The fortune of the Trojans college baseball team was extremelymixed in the pre-World War 1 years and the team was evenabolished for a season during 1913. This was to enable thecollege to focus on track and field sports. Of course the waryears led to a decline in all sports, including baseball, butthe Trojans college baseball team was fully re-instated in 1920.The University of Southern Californaia baseball team went fromstrength to strength and was finally rewarded by becoming amember of a college baseball conference in 1927 and they haven'tlooked back since.
