Wednesday's WooSox-RailRiders Game Suspended in Third Inning

Worcester Red Sox News Release


WORCESTER, M.A. - Rain paused the contest between the Worcester Red Sox (29-20) and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (33-13). The delay began prior to the top of the third inning, with the WooSox holding a 2-0 lead.

After a 10-minute delay prior to the start of the game and a scoreless top of the first, Worcester began the scoring in the bottom of the inning-a frame that began with a Jarren Duran walk. After a strikeout, a groundout pushed Duran to third, and following a Johan Mieses walk, Chris Herrmann singled through the hole on the right side to put the WooSox on top.

In the second, Chad De La Guerra and Josh Ockimey walked to put two on with one out against RailRiders' starter Nick Nelson. Jarren Duran lined a ball hard up the middle that skipped off the glove of shortstop Andrew Velazquez, scoring De La Guerra to double the advantage. A pair of strikeouts ended the inning, and as the rain intensified, the tarp was pulled on to the field at 7:46 p.m.
