Norwich 4, Whitney Point 1

WHITNEY POINT – Norwich scored three runs in the top of the seventh to win its third straight road game in as many days Wednesday.

Tyler Saroka, who had an RBI single in the fifth to put Norwich on the board, led off the seventh with a double. Mackay Hotaling singled and Tim Clark drove in Saroka with the go-ahead run. Hotaling and Clark later scored on Richie Bonney’s two-run single.

“Their pitcher did a good job and had us frustrated,” said Norwich coach John Martinson. “Michael (Moon) did a great job on the mound keeping us in the game.”

Moon allowed just three hits and did not walk a batter. He issued 14 first-pitch strikes to 23 batters, and the Tornado defense did not commit an error. “It was probably our best defensive game of the season,” Martinson said.

Norwich (6-5, 7-5) has allowed just four runs over the last three games. It hosts Windsor Friday.
