WORCHESTER, Mass. – A walkoff single by Emmanuel Valdez gave the Worcester Red Sox a 6-5 win over the Clippers at Polar Park Saturday.
Valdez’s ground ball into right field brought David Hamilton in with the winning run, capping a ninth-inning rally that started with Jarren Duran’s game-tying solo homer off reliever Thomas Ponticelli (0-1).
A home run by Micah Pries and Richie Palacios’ two-run double erased a two-run Red Sox lead and put Columbus in front by a run in the top of the ninth.
