Welcome to Smashville- The Worcester Red Sox open a 6-game series in the great city of Nashville, TN tonight at 7:35 pm (EDT) when they face the Nashville Sounds (AAA-Milwaukee) for the first time ever. Tonight's series-opener can be heard back in New England on NASH 98.9 FM and The Pike 100.1 FM. The 6-game set at First Horizon Park starts this evening and includes five straight night games...Tuesday - Saturday all at 7:35 pm (Eastern Time) before concluding on Sunday afternoon at 2:05 pm (EDT). First Horizon Park opened in 2015 in the Germantown neighborhood of downtown Nashville and is located less than 2 miles from historic Broadway in the very vibrant downtown of Music City. FYI...Nashville, one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S., is the capital and most populous city in the State of Tennessee with over 2.15 million people.

The Weather Channel - Summer comes early is another welcome feature of this first-ever trip to Tennessee for the WooSox! The WooSox will gain more than 50 degrees in temperatures this week compared to the 30 degree temps they played in at St. Paul during their first road series from March 31 - April 5 (and better than the 50 degree temps in Worcester this past week/weekend). Nashville weather for the week looks glorious with a high of 85 degrees most days, albeit with a chance of showers by the weekend.

It's Been A While Since We've Been to Music City - The last time a Red Sox Triple-A affiliate played in Nashville was on May 23, 1991 when the Pawtucket Red Sox blanked the Sounds behind Kevin Morton, 4-0. The PawSox victory gained a split of that 2-game series (yes, travel from Pawtucket, RI to Nashville, TN for a 2-game set) and began a rather arduous 10-game roadtrip for Pawtucket that included stops in Nashville (2 games), then to Louisville (3 games), then off to Indianapolis (3 games), and finally to Buffalo (for 2 games). Ah, travel in the old International League! Pawtucket and Nashville were part of the unique Triple-A Alliance back then that featured teams from the International League (like Pawtucket) facing teams from the American Association (like Nashville) in an interleague partnership from 1988-1991. The Pacific Coast League, the third Triple-A league at the time, did not participate.

10-4 Good Buddy - The WooSox 10-4 start to their season is their best in franchise-history (since 2021). The Sox have won 9 of their last 11 games overall. They are 5-4 at home compared to 5-0 on the road. They have yet to lose back-to-back games this season.

View From Above - The WooSox (10-4) are alone in 1st-place atop the International League East division by 11/2-games over both Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Lehigh Valley. Memphis leads the overall 20-team league with an 11-4 record good for 1st-place in the IL West. We know it's early, but we are 20% of the way through the first half of the season (first 75 games) which ends on June 21.

The probable pitching match-ups for the remainder of the series in Nashville this week/weekend:

Wed. 7:35 pm (EDT) LHP Alec Gamboa (NR) vs. RHP Coleman Crow (2-0, 4.02)

Thur. 7:35 pm (EDT) LHP Jake Bennett (2-1, 0.68) vs. RHP Logan Henderson (1-0, 0.00)

Fri. 7:35 pm (EDT) TBD vs. LHP Robert Gasser (0-0, 4.00)

Sat. 7:35 pm (EDT) LHP Payton Tolle (2-0, 3.00) vs. RHP Carlos Rodriguez (0-3, 8.71)

Sun. 2:05 pm (EDT) LHP Patrick Sandoval vs. LHP Shane Drohan
