The Rochester Red Wings opened up a two-week road trip with a win over the Worcester Red Sox on Tuesday, 4-1.
The Wings (51-61) were paced by new arrival Daniel Johnson, who was called up from Harrisburg after the release of David Dahl. The right-fielder went two-for-four with two RBIs: an RBI single in the first for his first Red Wings hit, and an RBI double in the third. The other two runs for Rochester came from Jake Alu, both on sacrifice flies.

Logan Verrett worked six innings of five-hit ball in the win, striking out five while allowing just a single earned run: an RBI double by Ronaldo Hernandez in the third. With the win, he is now 6-7 on the year. His performance continued from his success in relief last Thursday.
Jordan Weems picked up his 13th save, working a hitless ninth.
After losing 19 straight games, the Red Wings have now won four of their last five. They’ll look to continue their hot play with another game against Worcester on Wednesday at 12:15.
