The 16th-ranked Southern Miss baseball team batted around twice in successive innings Wednesday (March 14) against Tulane, handing the Green Wave a 12-3 defeat at Turchin Stadium.
The visiting Golden Eagles (12-4) sent nine batters to the plate in the third inning and scored four runs. In the fourth they sent 11 batters to the plate and scored another six runs.
Of those six runs, three crossed the plate on walks with the bases loaded. The final three runs scored on a pair of two-out singles. All told, Tulane (8-10) allowed eight walks.
Poor control has been a persistent issue for the Green Wave.
