Oneonta 13, Norwich 0

ONEONTA – Oneonta received a sterling effort on the mound from hurler Mark Giallanzo, and the ‘Jackets’ offense scored early and often in a shutout of the Purple Tornado Wednesday.

Giallanzo pitched a one-hit shutout, the lone base knock for the Tornado coming from senior Dennis Oralls.

Ben Moxley went 4-for-5 with five RBI to lead Oneonta. David Wright, Mike Calkins, and Zach Pidgeon drove in two runs apiece. “Oneonta hit the ball very well, and you can see why they have been a perennial power,” said Norwich coach John Martinson.

Norwich hosts Chenango Valley Friday.

Sidney 10, Oxford 6

OXFORD – Sidney claimed the lead with five runs in the third inning to erase a three-run deficit in Wednesday’s victory at Oxford.

In the third, Dylan Van Pelt reached on an infield error that scored Jon Wingate with the tying run, and Nate MacDonald’s triple plated the go-ahead run. “Sidney hit the ball hard today, that’s for sure,” said Oxford coach Chris Palmer. “Six of their hits went for extra bases, and they had several loud outs.”
