October 26, 2022 – International League (IL)Worcester Red Sox News Release

WORCESTER, MA – In conjunction with Major League Baseball, the Worcester Red Sox today announced their 2023 schedule, a 150-game slate including 75 home games at Polar Park for the second straight year. The WooSox open the 2023 season on Friday, March 31 when they host the Syracuse Mets at 4:05 p.m. at Polar Park. The March 31st Opening Day marks the earliest a Red Sox Triple-A franchise has ever begun a season. The WooSox and Mets will play a 3-game opening weekend series that will also feature games on Saturday, April 1 at 4:05 p.m. and Sunday, April 2 at 1:05 p.m.


Individual tickets for the 2023 season will go on sale in December on a date to be announced. Season tickets are currently available by calling the WooSox ticket office at 508-500-8888.

The WooSox will also unveil an exciting new promotional calendar for the 2023 season next month that will be filled with unique food and beverage offerings, snazzy alternative jerseys, fun nightly recurring themes, and more-all of them new and different. After all, there will be even more to do and see in WooSox ’23.

That series will actually be the front half of a 12-game homestand that will continue on May 2 when the Buffalo Bisons visit for 6 games through May 7.

Worcester will have one other 12-game homestand during the year featuring 6-game sets against both Buffalo and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre from August 8-20. The WooSox will have one 12-game road trip from May 23 – June 4 that includes 6 games at both Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Louisville – marking the first time the Sox will have ever faced the Louisville Bats (AAA-Cincinnati).
