The WooSox to establish a team Hall of Fame beginning in 2024
The Worcester Red Sox will establish the WooSox Hall of Fame beginning in 2024, the team’s fourth season at Polar Park.
The WooSox Hall of Fame will recognize the careers and contributions of former and current players, managers, coaches, broadcasters, and executives. The team will also honor others who have been instrumental in the overall history of the team.
“We are grateful to Peter Freund and everyone at Diamond Baseball Holdings for encouraging us to establish a WooSox Hall of Fame,” said WooSox President Dr. Charles Steinberg in a team statement on Thursday.
“Even though we are still in the early innings of the history we are creating in the Heart of the Commonwealth, personalities have emerged who we would like to thank; it’s best not to wait. Discussions about people who have enhanced the quality of life in Worcester are positive and unifying; we look forward to assembling a selection committee that cares about Worcester, the WooSox, and baseball at all levels in Central Massachusetts and New England,” added Steinberg.
The first WooSox Hall of Fame inductee(s) will be honored during the upcoming 2024 season. The team has not yet announced the date of the event. Individual WooSox Hall of Fame plaques will eventually reside inside Polar Park.
The PawSox Hall of Fame was established in Dec. 2015, eleven members were inducted beginning in 2016 through 2020.
