Turner Parry, Cortland
March 14, 2016
BASEBALL PITCHER OF THE WEEK – Nominee: Turner Parry (SR)
Cortland (Syracuse, N.Y./West Genesee)
Parry retired all 11 batters he faced, eight by strikeout, to earn the win in relief as nationally top-ranked Cortland defeated second-ranked Wisconsin-La Crosse, 4-3, in 10 innings in Auburndale, Fla. Parry entered with one out and runners on second and third and the game tied at 3-3 in the top of the seventh. He struck out two batters to escape that jam, then retired the side in order in the eighth, ninth and 10th innings (with two strikeouts in each inning) before Cortland won the game in the bottom of the 10th.
