HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Winthrop immediately loaded the bases with no one out but failed to score
  • In the top of the fourth, Vela smacked a three-run blast to right field with two outs to break the scoreless tie
  • In the bottom of the frame, USC Upstate tied it on a pair of home runs and both occurred with no one out
  • First, Zenor homered to right to get the Spartans on the board and two plays later Newman hit a two-run shot to left field to knot the score
  • Several plays later the home team took the lead for the first time, 4-3, on an RBI single by Waters through the left side
  • Neither team threatened again until the bottom of the seventh when the Spartans put up an eight spot to extend their lead to 12-3
  • Upstate wrapped up the scoring in the bottom of the eighth on Waters's two-run RBI double to left center field with two outs
