Ryan Green struck out 18 in a complete-game two-hitter to lead the Torrington Thunder to a 6-2 win over the Valley Ducks on Monday at Fuessenich Park. The Thunder scored all six of their runs in the third inning, highlighted by Robert Anton’s two-run single, a bases-loaded walk by Bryce Adamski, an RBI hit-by-pitch, and a two-run wild pitch.

Despite the loss, Ducks catcher Alex Mentone stood out with one of Valley’s two hits while providing a strong presence behind the plate.
