NORWICH – Norwich gave up an early lead in its last game, and Wednesday, the Tornado rallied from an early deficit to earn their first win of the season.

Josh Whaley came on to pitch three innings for scoreless relief for the win. During that time, the Tornado tied the game with three runs in the bottom of the fifth, and scored the winning run in the sixth..

Josh Borfitz, Mackay Hotaling, and Whaley had single ribbies in the fifth to score Kyle Cashman, Lucas Follett, and Paddy Law respectively. In the sixth, Nick McCullough singled, stole second, moved to third on a flyout by Casey Edwards, and scored on Follett’s RBI triple.

McCullough went 2-for-3, and Follett also had two hits for the Tornado (1-2).

“We have to get rid of some of those errors, but it was really nice to see the bottom of our lineup come through at the plate tonight,” said Norwich coach John Martinson.

Norwich plays at Chenango Valley today.
