WORCESTER, MASS. It’s the Worcester Red Sox final homestand of the season, and the club is celebrating with Fan Appreciation Week packed full of special happenings.
On Tuesday, fans can be the first to pick up the brand-new “Pawtucket Hot Wieners” jersey at the team store. It will also be the final “Tail Waggin’ Tuesday” and “Taco & Tequila Tuesday” of the year.
Throughout the week, WooSox players will stop into Sherwood’s Diner to sign autographs before games.
Friday features the last Unibank Fireworks show of the season with the theme “Love is All You Need.”
Sunday’s season finale kicks off with a “Meet the Team” event, giving fans 45 minutes on the field with the players for autographs. After the game, lucky fans will receive the “shirts off the players’ backs.” The day will wrap up with the final Kids Run the Bases and a Sunset Catch on the field.
“Let the last thing you do in WooSox 25… Let it be that you play catch on the field till you say, okay, I’m ready for Autumn. How about that?” said team president Dr. Charles Steinberg. “Because we don’t want to tell you when summer’s over, you decide that for yourself.”
