WooSox Postponed Tonight at Polar Park

Worcester Red Sox News Release


WORCESTER, MA - With an ominous forecast of heavy rain, lightning, and thunderstorms expected to move into the Worcester area around 4 p.m. and continuing throughout the rest of the evening, tonight's game between the host Worcester Red Sox and the visiting Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp scheduled for 6:45 p.m. at Polar Park has been postponed.

Tonight's rainout will be made-up as part of a single-admission makeup doubleheader tomorrow (Wednesday) beginning at 4:05 pm at Polar Park. Both games of the twin bill will be 7-innings. It will start a 6-game series and homestand for the WooSox who will host Jacksonville through this Sunday afternoon at Polar Park.

Fans holding tickets for tonight's postponement can trade those in for any remaining WooSox '26 home game this season - based on availability. If fans have a hard ticket for tonight's game, that ticket can be exchanged for a similar ticket of equal or lesser value. If fans have an electronic ticket, they can make that exchange either in person at the Polar Park box office or at woosox.com. Digital tickets can be shown at the Ticket Office to be exchanged for equal or lesser value, based on availability. Fans can also call 508-500-8888 to speak with a Ticket Office staff member to make the exchange.

Tickets for all WooSox games for the remainder of the season are on sale now at woosox.com, by calling 508-500-8888, or at the Polar Park Ticket Office.

Tonight marks the fourth home postponement at Polar Park this season for the WooSox and the second straight Tuesday home game that has been postponed (Tuesday, July 7 vs. Rochester the other). Both of the first two rainouts at Polar Park (on May 9 and May 24) were ultimately not made up and considered cancelled games during the first half of the schedule. Last year the WooSox set a new club record for most home games either postponed or cancelled in a single season with nine.
