Hi John,
One way to do this would be to redefine the verbatim environment in
LaTeX. There is a fancyvrb package for LaTeX that might help with this.
I think a better answer to your query has two parts.
1) Make Org-mode distinguish your code and results, instead of having
them both be verbatim environments. One way to do this would be to use
listings or minted to typeset the source code blocks: see
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-12.
Then use :wrap foo to wrap the results in a foo environment.
2) Configure LaTeX to typeset the new environments in a way that pleases
you. LaTeX specifies for each environment the space to leave before it
and after it. You should be able to set these so the results please
you. Here is one example for how to modify the results block:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-10-2.
Note that this was written for an earlier version of Org-mode, before
results blocks were stored in drawers. Instead of "results" use "foo".
You'll need to consult the listings or minted packages to configure one
of them.
In effect, you will be taking advantage of LaTeX's semantic markup.
hth,
Tom
