"The Woo Sox got a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 12th inning, which gave a position player the win as a pitcher on Thursday night over the RailRiders (NYY). Other than that, things were pretty uneventful."
"Catcher/First baseman Nathan Hickey got the win after pitching the top of the 12th. Hickey has actually pitched in four games this season, allowing just one run in 3 ⅓ innings over those appearances. He spoke in the postgame about it being his first win as a pitcher since high school."
"Worcester had two-hit efforts from Nick Sogard, Anthony Seigler, and Allan Castro, Thursday night's hero. Seigler homered in the 4th. Castro's two-run shot in the 12th walked it off."
"The Sea Dogs played a doubleheader against the Fisher Cats (TOR), after a Wednesday rainout. For two years running now, Dean Roussel has a voodoo doll on me, where the Wednesday games get rained out, leaving me with an extra game on the Thursday write-ups. I won't forget this, Dean."
Worcester defeated Scranton/Wilkes-Barre 10-8 in 12 innings with a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 12th. The win was credited to catcher/first baseman Nathan Hickey, who pitched the top of the 12th and allowed one run across limited appearances this season. Nick Sogard, Anthony Seigler, and Allan Castro contributed two-hit performances, with Seigler homering in the fourth. Seigler’s homer and Castro’s two-run shot in the 12th helped Worcester overcome early scoring by Seth Martinez, who allowed three runs in two innings before multiple relievers took over. Braiden Ward added two walks and two stolen bases. New Hampshire split a doubleheader with Portland, winning Game 2 in 10 innings after Game 1 ended 4-2.
