RED WINGS NOTES

THAT'S FOR THE MOMS: The Red Wings pitching staff combined to hold Worcester to just one hit this afternoon in the 1-0 shutout win...this was the first time Wings pitching has hurled a one-hit shutout at home since June 28, 2016 against the long-time Boston affiliate, Pawtucket Red Sox.

STARTING OUT RIGHT: Wings' starting pitcher LHP ANTHONY BANDA worked 2.0 scoreless innings, allowing one hit with a strikeout...Rochester starting pitching posted a 2.63 ERA (8 ER/27.1 IP) in the series, lowest in the International League dating back to 5/9...

Coming into the series, Wings starters ranked 13th in the IL with a 5.80 ERA (85 ER/132.0 IP) in 31 games played.

NEW GUY CAN STAY: New relief pitcher RHP AMOS WILLINGHAM made his Triple-A debut this afternoon, working 1.1 scoreless innings while striking out three...Willingham is the fourth player to make his Triple-A debut with the Wings this season (Ferrer, Irvin, Baker)...

The Georgia native has not allowed an earned run through his first 11 appearances this season (10 with HBG), allowing just six hits with 17 strikeouts to just one walk.

EFFICIENT HITS: After Rochester scattered their five hits among five different players, Sunday's finale marks their first game without a multi-hit performance since 4/28 vs. St Paul (13 games)...

The Wings' five hits are the fewest in a Red Wings' win since they defeated a first-place Norfolk team on 4/19 using the same number.

RED SOX NOTES

HIP HIP, JORGE: Worcester C JORGE ALFARO collected the only hit this afternoon for the WooSox, going 1-for-3 with a single...the Colombia native ranks fourth in the International League in batting average (.338, 44-for-130), three spots ahead of Wings infielder Darren Baker.
