The post-Marcelo Mayer era kicked off in Worcester with a doubleheader. The opener was a thriller, with both teams matching zeroes for the first six innings. Durham plated a run in the top of the seventh, but the WooSox walked off on a Nate Eaton base hit that scored Tyler McDonough and Jhostynxon Garcia. Garcia led the offense, going 3 for 4. Eaton, McDonough, and Vaughn Grissom each had two hits, with McDonough also swiping a bag. Roman Anthony, the last of the Big Three left in Triple-A, was held hitless but did draw a walk.

Austin Adams struck out all three batters he faced, while Isaiah Campbell was the beneficiary of the comeback, getting credit for the win.
