Fans of the Worcester Red Sox will now have a couple of reasons to cheer after a WooSox pitcher sits down an opposing hitter in 2021.
As part of its partnership with the WooSox, Fallon Health announced on Tuesday that it will donate $50 to the Worcester County Food Bank every time the home team strikes out a visitor at Polar Park. Fallon guaranteed a commitment of at least $50,000 during the season.

Baseball season is hopefully just four months away, and Paul Scully says that’s reason for excitement in Massachusetts.
“Just think about this year and the fact that so many of us have been inside, just looking for something to do,” said Scully, president and CEO of Country Bank, while talking about the bank’s ‘founding partner’ status with the Worcester Red Sox during a recent episode of BusinessTalk, the BusinessWest podcast.
“Just the prospect of having baseball back, right here within a quick drive for most of us … we’re very excited about it for the fans, for our customers, and for businesses throughout the area. It’s a great time.”
