OTEGO – On Thursday, the Norwich Post #189 Legion baseball team traveled to take on Otego for the second time this week. After Monday’s high-scoring affair, Norwich, unfortunately, couldn’t battle back in this one as they were shutout 14-0. This game may have been the final game of the Legion season for Norwich with other teams moving to the playoffs.

Norwich was held to just one hit through the five innings played. Kolbey Redenback singled to right field in the second inning to spark the offense. Zac Turner reached base in the first inning on a hit by pitch before Kaden Downey got on with a fielder’s choice and stole second base.

Otherwise, the Otego defense played a clean game and didn’t allow any walks. Otego plated 13 runs in the third inning to seal the victory.

Owen Olds, Collin Reid, and Mikey Brunick split time on the mound for Norwich. Brunick started the game and went two innings and a third, allowing 11 runs, five earned, on seven hits, four walks, and struck out one batter. Owen Olds came in with an attempt to finish the inning and allowed three unearned runs on one hit and three walks. Collin Reid replaced him with two outs and went on to finish the game as well. Reid gave up a hit and struck out one batter.
