Worcester & Buffalo are already scheduled to play a make-up doubleheader tomorrow (Friday) at 4:45 pm at Polar Park.
Tonight’s (Thursday’s) scheduled International League game between the host Worcester Red Sox and the Buffalo Bisons at Polar Park has been postponed due to continued rains throughout the evening. No make-up date for tonight’s rainout has been announced.
The WooSox and Bisons (AAA-Toronto) are in the midst of a series at Polar Park that already has a single-admission make-up doubleheader on the slate for tomorrow (Friday) beginning at 4:45 pm. That doubleheader is from a July 2 rainout in Buffalo. Both games will be 7-innings with Buffalo the “home” team in Game 2. The clubs are scheduled to play single-games on Saturday at 4:05 pm and Sunday at 1:05 pm and then do not meet again this season.
