"The WooSox destroyed the Bulls ( Rays AAA) despite getting just six hits on the afternoon. It helped that two of these hits were home runs by Tyler McDonough, and it set the tone that McDonough's first-inning shot was a grand slam, rising Worcester's win probability to over 82% with just two outs recorded in the whole game. People make 2021 all about the Mayer pick, but McDonough also fell to the third round that year."
"Worcester's bullpen led by David Sandlin didn't allow a hit from the third inning to the ninth. Also helping things out with some insurance shots were Max Ferguson, who's been raking of late, and Abraham Toro, who may see a call-up today. Worcester's roster is about to be a bit depleted for a week following call-up day before getting some help before a Portland name or two at the end of their season."
Worcester defeated the Bulls despite collecting only six hits, buoyed by two home runs from Tyler McDonough including a first-inning grand slam that pushed win probability above 82% with two outs recorded. Worcester's bullpen, led by David Sandlin, did not allow a hit from the third through ninth innings. Max Ferguson and Abraham Toro provided insurance offense, and Toro may receive a major-league call-up. Worcester expects a temporary roster depletion following call-up day before reinforcements arrive late in the season. Caleb Bolden allowed four fourth-inning runs but completed six innings, Brooks Brannon homered, Franklin Arias extended a hitting streak, and prospect Maximus Martin drew a walk and scored.
