Worcester Red Sox LHP Raymond Burgos (NR) vs. Buffalo Bisons RHP Austin Voth (0-0, 3.12)

Shuffling Off to Buffalo - The Worcester Red Sox make the first of their two trips to Buffalo, NY this season when they play a 6-game series against the Buffalo Bisons (AAA-Toronto) this week/weekend beginning tonight with the series opener at 6:05 pm at Sahlen Field in downtown Buffalo. Almost one year ago (May 13, 2025 to be exact), the WooSox made their only trip of the entire year to Buffalo when the clubs split a 6-game series last May 13-18. Worcester will indeed return to Buffalo again later this season for another 6-game set from September 1-6. The Bisons will visit Worcester for a pair of 6-game sets from June 2-7 and August 11-16. Buffalo and Rochester are the two opponents the WooSox face the most this season (24 total vs. each). Tonight's game can be heard back in New England on NASH 98.9 FM and The Pike 100.1 FM.

Beating the Yanks - The WooSox are coming off a series victory over the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, 3 games to 2 in their abbreviated 5-game set (cut short by the first home postponement of the year for the WooSox on Saturday). The Sox did drop a tough, 3-2 decision in the series finale on Sunday, but by winning the series, Worcester broke a tie for 1st-palce in the IL East and now lead the RailRiders by 1-game atop the division. Worcester is 4-2-1 in their first seven series played...4 wins, 2 losses, and 1 split.

Alone at the Top (of the IL East anyway) - Worcester is currently alone in 1st-place in the International League East division with their 21-16 record. Scranton/WB is 1-game behind while Syracuse is 11/2-games back. Bufalo comes into play tonight tied for 6th place in the IL East at 19-20 and 3 GB of the front-running WooSox. The WooSox have been alone or had a share of first since April 30. Memphis is in 1st-place in the IL West division and they own the overall league lead with their 25-14 record.

What Have You Done For Me Lately - Worcester has won 8 of their last 13 games. They are 11-7 since a season-high 5-game losing streak from April 14-18 (all those in Nashville). They were 10-4 on April 12th for the best start in franchise-history. The WooSox have been above .500 since April 1st.

Wed. 6:05 pm TBD vs. RHP Grant Rogers (1-3, 6.35)
