WINDSOR – A much different Norwich team appeared against Windsor Tuesday night as the Purple Tornado were in a battle with the Black Knights. However, Windsor registered one more hit in the game than Norwich and that aided the in 4-2 win to end the Tornado’s winning streak at four games.

Windsor scored three runs in the bottom of the third inning to take the first lead of the contest. Norwich answered, scoring two in the top of the fourth to cut the margin down to one run.

Tanner Franklin led the inning off for the Purple Tornado with a single on a 1-1 count. Norwich’s number two hitter Marcus Cashman was next up and knocked a base hit as well, moving Franklin into scoring position and putting two on the base paths for Norwich’s hitting leader JT Vinal.

Hitting a sacrifice fly out to center field, Vinal brought Franklin across the plate for the the first run. Jordan Jacquette then hit a single that brought Cashman home to score to make it 3-2. Windsor got out of the inning by forcing Eli Rodriguez to hit a ground ball to third, turning a double-play to get both Jacquette and Rodriguez out.
