[Plugin: Special Recent Posts] Need unwanted space removed

So I’ve been playing around with this plugin a bit, and I’m having a bit of difficulty removing unwanted space between the title and the date.

You can see this unwanted space on my website in the sidebar:
http://www.ios-source.com

What I want is for it to look like the example below’s recent posts sidebar:
http://www.redmondpie.com

Their recent posts sidebar has barely any space between each line, I want mine to be like that. So if anybody could tell me what needs to be done, that would be great.

Thank you!
