Verrett Deals Again, Wings Beat Sox, 4-1
August 16, 2022 - International League (IL)
Rochester Red Wings News Release
The Rochester Red Wings picked up the series opening win Tuesday night in Worcester, MA, behind a strong outing from RHP Logan Verrett.
RHP Logan Verrett logged six innings, allowing just one run (earned) while scattering five hits. The Baylor-alum recorded five strikeouts without allowing a free pass. Verrett would exit after 77 pitches (54) strikes.
The Wings got the scoring going early thanks to an RBI-single from new-Wing RF Daniel Johnson who singled in CF Andrew Stevenson in the first. 3B Jake Alu added to the cause with a sac-fly, scoring LF Josh Palacios.
In the third, it would be Daniel Johnson, again, who doubled in Stevenson in his second at-bat as a Wing, which was then followed by a Jake Alu sac-fly, this time scoring 1B John Nogowski.
Worcester would answer in the bottom half of the third as DH Ronaldo Hernandez knocked in 3B Emmanuel Valdez to score the lone run for the Woo Sox.
RHP Will Harris (ML-Rehab), RHP Mason Thompson, and RHP Jordan Weems would finish out the ballgame relieving Verrett, allowing just three hits combined. Weems secured his 13th save of the year, leading all Wings in the category and ranking fourth among International League pitchers.
The Wings and Sox matchup tomorrow, Wednesday, for their 12:15 game. RHP Eric Fedde will start for the Red Wings, via Major League Rehab.
