ROCHESTER, NY - The Worcester Red Sox (18-14) dropped the series finale to the Rochester Red Wings (16-17) on Sunday afternoon at ESL Ballpark by a 6-3 final to split the six-game series with the Washington Nationals Triple-A affiliate.

The Red Wings scored the game's first run in the bottom of the first when Dylan Crews singled home a run.

The WooSox tied the game the top of the fourth. With one out and Vinny Capra at second, Anthony Seigler ripped an RBI double into right-center field.

Rochester regained the lead in the home half of the fourth thanks to a force out.

In the bottom of the sixth, a solo home run from Crews and a two-run shot from Andrew Pinckney extended Rochester's lead to 5-1.

Allan Castro hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh to cut the deficit to 5-2.

Nate Eaton's sacrifice fly in the eighth made it a 5-3 game, but Trey Lipscomb lined an RBI double in the bottom of the eighth to give the Red Wings a 6-3 lead that they wouldn't relinquish.

Worcester split the six-game set in Rochester.

Vinny Capra went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored. Capra has four consecutive multi-hit games. He went 9-for-19 in the series with seven extra-base hits.

Anthony Seigler finished 3-for-4 with an RBI double, a stolen base, and a run scored. Seigler has hit safely in four straight games, going 7-for-13 with three extra-base hits and four RBI during this stretch.
