DES MOINES, I.A. - The Worcester Red Sox (60-56) hit five home runs in a victory over the Iowa Cubs (56-60) on Thursday night, a 13-10 win at Principal Park.

David Hamilton set the tone for a big offensive night, leading off the ballgame with a solo homer to left in his first game at Triple-A since July 22. By night's end, the WooSox would score in the first, second, fourth, sixth and eighth innings.

An RBI double from Nate Eaton and a two-run single by Mikey Romero made it a four spot in the first for the road team. One inning later, Kristian Campbell blasted a two-run job, finishing off a six-pitch at-bat with his sixth homer in 41 games with Worcester.

Romero delivered his second two-run single in the fourth to make it 8-3, his second multi-RBI game of the week.

Jhostynxon Garcia entered Thursday without a hit in the series, but after a single in the first, he homered in the sixth. Garcia now leads the International League in August with five home runs.

The obliteration continued in the eighth, thanks to a three-run shot from Nate Eaton, followed by a Trayce Thompson solo blast. In three games in Iowa, Eaton now has six hits, two doubles, two homers, a triple and 8 RBI.

On the mound, Connelly Early posted the following line in his third Triple-A start: 5 IP, 3 H, 3 R (2 ER), 3 BB, 5 K.

Chris Murphy followed with a scoreless sixth in his return to the WooSox, striking out two.

Cooper Criswell made his second Triple-A relief appearance of the season, going two innings of two-run ball. The right-hander walked two and struck out two on 51 pitches.

Wyatt Olds allowed five in the ninth but finished off the win, Worcester's second victory in three games in Iowa.
