House Call - The Worcester Red Sox saw their 4-game winning streak come to an end on Friday night when they were defeated by the Rochester Red Wings, 10-4 in front of Polar Park's 10th sellout crowd of the season (7,620). Rochester third baseman Brady House hit for the cycle as the former 1st round draft pick of the Washington Nationals out of high school in Georgia (2021) tripled in the 1st-inning, doubled in the 3rd, homered in the 5th, and then singled off the Worcester Wall in rightfield leading off the 9th inning. Former WooSox and current Red Sox infielder Tsung-Che Cheng had the first cycle in WooSox history this past April 10th vs. Columbus at Polar Park. The WooSox had won the first three games of the series and will bid to win the series outright in the penultimate game of the set today at 4:05 pm at Polar Park. The game is live on NESN+ and can be heard on NASH 98.9 FM.
Still a Fine Stretch - The WooSox have still won 4 of 5 and 8 of their last 11 games and sit at the .500 mark in the second half of the season at 8-8. Worcester is 1-game over the .500 mark overall on the season at 44-43 with 60 games remaining as they bid for their 6th winning season in this their 6th year in Worcester.
The Rest of This Series and Beyond - Worcester and Rochester will play their series and season-series finale tomorrow (Sunday) at 1:05 pm. That will also be the final game before the All-Star break when the WooSox and the entire International League join with all MLB teams to enjoy four straight off-days this coming Monday - Thursday. Worcester will return to action after the break for a 3-game weekend series at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre from July 17-19. The WooSox will be back at Polar Park to take on the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (AAA-Miami) for a 6-game series from July 21-26.
