WORCESTER, MA (May 19, 2022) –The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders fell by a 3-2 final to the Worcester Red Sox on Thursday night in walk-off fashion. Miguel Andújar tied the game in the ninth and eventually scored the then go-ahead run in a late rally in a losing effort.

SWB starter Hayden Wesneski worked out of trouble in the second and fourth innings in his eighth start of the season. He worked 4.0+ innings before departing in the fifth. He was knocked out of the game after the only run scored. Yolmer Sánchez tripled to lead off the inning and was promptly driven in courtesy of a Jarren Duran double.

RailRiders hitters did not have many chances to score early in the game. In the fifth inning, Rob Brantly attempted to score on a long single from David Freitas off the high wall in right. He was thrown out by the combo of Duran and Jonathan Araúz at home plate.

Down to their final three outs, Estevan Florial doubled and took third on a passed ball with one out in the ninth inning. Andújar then flared a tough pitch on the hands into center field to tie the game at one. With one strike to get to bring up the bottom of the ninth, a pitch got away from Worcester catcher Ronaldo Hérnandez. Andújar came home to score the go-ahead run for a 2-1 lead.

After a walk to begin the bottom of the ninth, Roberto Ramos sent a two-run home run over the left field wall to win the game for the WooSox. After dropping ten straight entering the series, Worcester has won the first three of this series to guarantee at least a series split. Greg Weissert (1-1) allowed the home run and was charged with the loss. Worcester reliever Zack Kelly (1-1) took the win.

Worcester and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre match up on Friday night at 6:45 PM. Deivi García will take the ball for the RailRiders. All the action can be heard on swbrailriders.com starting at 6:25 PM.
