Dedeaux Download Podcast: Grant Govel joins after helping USC throw no-hitter in opening weekend sweep

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down USC baseball's 3-0 start to the season with a historic Saturday performance. The Trojans threw a combined no-hitter that ended in dramatic fashion as a two-run homer from Andrew Lamb invoked a 10-run mercy rule.

Sandwiching the dominant 11-0 display on Saturday were a pair of close victories for USC as it won the season opener 3-1 and then locked up the sweep Sunday with an 8-5 victory over the Pepperdine. In each game, the Trojans got elite starting pitching, allowing just three hits over three starts and 16 innings.

Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups after they talk with USC sophomore right-hander Grant Govel about throwing the first six innings of a no-hitter and striking out a career-high nine batters.

Govel also discusses his offseason development, putting on 20 pounds of muscle and refining his repertoire, which was all working for him in his start against the Waves.
