JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Thanks to a walk-off single from Jacob Berry the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp secured a 3-2 win and series win Sunday afternoon from VyStar Ballpark, in front of 6,375 fans.

Trailing 2-1 in the eighth, Maximo Acosta worked a leadoff walk for Jacksonville (6-3).

With the potential tying run in scoring position, Agustín Ramírez smacked a sac fly, scoring Acosta to tie the game at two.

Entering the bottom of the ninth in a tie game, Troy Johnston led off the inning with a single. After a strikeout, Johnston stole second and then scored on the game-winning base knock from Berry.

Worcester broke the scoreless tie in the second. With two outs, Nathan Hickey singled. One batter later, Seby Zavala smacked an RBI double, giving the WooSox an early 1-0 lead.

Up by a run, Trayce Thompson ripped a leadoff single in the fourth. He quickly stole second and advanced to third on a ground ball. With Phillip Sikes at the plate, Thompson scampered home on a passed ball, extending the Worcester lead.
