In Worcester on Thursday, the Worcester Red Sox faced their toughest opponent over their last three seasons at Polar Park in the Canal District and are now 0-3 against the weather.
For the third time this season, WooSox have had to postpone a game due to weather conditions. In their first homestand of the season, they had to postpone one game for rain and one game for the first ever snow out. Thursday night was the teams second rain postponement.
In a statement Thursday, the WooSox said, “Today’s rainout will be made up as part of a single-admission doubleheader this Saturday at Polar Park at 4:05 pm (the originally scheduled start time). Both games on Saturday will be 7-innings. Gates will open at 2:30 pm.”
The WooSox are hosting the Durham Bulls this week for a six-game homestand, which kicked off Tuesday night with the WooSox grabbing a 6-2 win.
Anyone with tickets to Thursday night’s game, the WooSox said, “Fans holding tickets for today (Thursday) can trade those in for any remaining WooSox home game this season – based on availability. If fans have a hard ticket for today’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 at 508-500-8888 to speak with a Ticket Office staff member to make the exchange.”
Friday night, the WooSox will play their regularly scheduled single game against the Durham Bulls at 6:05 pm.
Following Friday’s game is the UniBank Fireworks.
