APRIL 15th WORCESTER (10-5) at NASHVILLE (7-8) 7:35 pm (EDT)

Worcester Red Sox LHP Alec Gamboa (NR) vs. Nashville Sounds RHP Coleman Crow (2-0, 4.02)

One and Done - The Worcester Red Sox - who lost on the road for the first time in six away games this season last night - look to avoid dropping back-to-back games for the first time this year when they play the second of a 6-game series in Nashville, TN tonight at 7:35 pm (EDT) against the Nashville Sounds (AAA-Milwaukee). The teams met for the first time ever last night and it was pretty much all Sounds as the home team rolled to a 9-4 victory. The WooSox need a victory tonight to avoid losing two straight for the first time since last September 18 & 19 vs. Rochester.

The Road Home - Worcester is now 5-1 on the road after their 5-0 start to their road schedule which was their best in club-history. They are 5-4 at home. The WooSox will enjoy their stay amid the warm weather in Nashville (temps in the 80's all week) before flying back to Worcester (via Boston) after Sunday's series finale. The Sox will host Syracuse for the second time this season beginning on Tuesday, April 21 with the opener of a 6-game set vs. the Mets through Sunday, April 26. Game times vary during the series as the clubs play April 21 at 6:05 pm, a special 3:05 pm start on April 22 followed by another weekday matinee on April 23 at 12:05 pm (those during School Vacation Week) and then back to normal times on Friday, April 24 at 6:05 pm as well as over the weekend with a 4:05 pm game on Saturday, April 25 and a 1:05 pm start on Sunday, April 26.

10-5 on April 15 - The WooSox 10-5 start to their season is still their best in franchise-history (since 2021). The Sox have won 9 of their last 12 games overall. This friendly reminder that today is Tax Day. Sorry.

View From Above - The WooSox (10-5) are alone in 1st-place atop the International League East division by a 1/2-game over Lehigh Valley. Memphis leads the overall 20-team league with a 12-4 record good for 1st-place in the IL West.

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

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 (0-1, 8.44) vs. LHP Shane Drohan (1-0, 3.12)
