WooSox return home for six-game homestand with Rochester Red Wings
With the WooSox set to begin a six-game homestand at Polar Park, the Boston Red Sox' Triple-A club will welcome back their former top pitching prospect.
WORCESTER — The WooSox will be happy to return to Polar Park on Tuesday. The Boston Red Sox’ Triple-A club lost five of their last seven games, but wrapped up their latest road series in New York with a 4-0 win on Sunday. On May 19, Worcester (23-20) begins a six-game homestand against the Rochester Red Wings (25-20).
