Making a bid for a 14th straight victory, Parker High scored the game’s first two runs Thursday.
Freshman Tyler Wick’s two-run home run to right-center was nullified after a brief umpire conference changed it to a ground-rule double and returned both runners to second and third.He got the two lost runs back as well as one more with his first home run of the season, and that was all pitcher Chris Williams needed for a 9-1 victory over Montgomery in the finals of the Premier John Netterblad Division of the annual Lions Tournament.
The junior baseball-football-soccer player improved to 3-0 with six innings of four-hit work that included three walks and seven strikeouts. “Williams will be the guy on the mound this year,” coach Amad Stephens said. “He brings a football mentality to the field that makes him even tougher.”Williams allowed just three walks from that point on.Offense has kept pace with the pitching by scoring 137 runs, more than seven runs a game.“We want to keep the winning streak going,” Noonan said. “I missed sophomore year because of COVID and last year was different since we have so many sports playing on our field at the same time.
“I like our team, our chemistry,” he said. “We pick each other up even though we’re still a young team.”Besides Noonan leading the 11-hit attack, freshman Ben Gudoy and Wick each went 2-for-4. Wick got one of the lost RBIs back with a sixth-inning single. Teammate Diezel Hernandez, a sophomore, drove in two runs with a lineout and a single.“We’re just playing our game at this point,” said Noonan, whose older brother Nick also played at Parker as well as in the major leagues.
