WooSox v. Bisons 5/3 Game Postponed; Doubleheader Scheduled for Saturday 5/6 at 4:05pm

Worcester and Buffalo will now play make-up doubleheaders tomorrow (Thursday) and this Saturday both at 4:05 pm at Polar Park

Tonight’s (Wednesday’s) scheduled International League game between the host Worcester Red Sox and the Buffalo Bisons at Polar Park has been postponed due to rain and the forecast for further rains throughout the evening.

The WooSox and Bisons will make up tonight’s rainout with a single-admission doubleheader this Saturday, May 6 beginning at 4:05 pm. (4:05 pm was the originally scheduled start time for Saturday).

The teams already have a make-up doubleheader slated for tomorrow (Thursday) beginning at 4:05 pm. That too will be a single-admission twin bill (both games again 7-innings), but in a strange twist, Buffalo will be the home team in Game 2 because tomorrow’s nightcap is from a game that was originally scheduled to be played in Buffalo on April 6 before being rained out.

Bryan Mata (0-2, 5.12) will be the WooSox starter in Game 1 tomorrow while Matt Dermody (1-0, 5.29) gets the nod in the nightcap.

Fans holding tickets for tonight (Wednesday) can trade those in for any remaining WooSox 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 at 508-500-8888 to speak with a Ticket Office staff member to make the exchange.

This is the first home postponement for the WooSox this season – they have had four road games postponed already this season. Worcester had only two home postponements all of last year (April 14 & April 26) after five home postponements and one cancelled home game during their inaugural season at Polar Park in 2021.

This 13-game WooSox homestand (Sox are 5-2 thus far) continues through Sunday afternoon.
