The WooSox rallied in the bottom of the sixth. Worcester scored its first run on a ground ball double play with the bases loaded. Two batters later, with two in scoring position, Yasmani Grandal lined a two-run single into center field to put the WooSox on top 3-2.

Brock Jones tied the game at three with a solo homer in the top of the seventh.
