The Woosox Mascot Is What?

The Worcester Red Sox, Boston’s Triple-A affiliate, announced its new mascot, Clara, the Heart of the Commonwealth, ahead of a six-game home series with the Norfolk Tides. Clara, a heart-shaped mascot wearing a nurse’s uniform, is named after Clara Barton, an Oxford native who founded the American Red Cross in 1881. The team introduced their newest mascot, “Smiley”, a yellow smiley-face pin, as part of Canine Companions for Independence’s DogFest 2020 virtual event.

The WooSox also revealed Woofster, a new team mascot that will act as the official rescue dog of Smiley Ball. The mascot was designed by Worcester’s own Harvey Ball in 1963. Ball’s son, Charlie, was also at the event.

In a video released by the team, Clara was introduced as part of Canine Companions for Independence’s DogFest 2020 virtual event. The team’s mascot, Smiley Ball, was introduced in Worcester on October 2, 2020, and the dog mascot, Woofster, was introduced in Worcester on August 26, 2021.

The WooSox Nation’s support has been instrumental in the mascot’s journey to baseball. The team’s mascot, Smiley Ball, was introduced in Worcester on October 2, 2020, and the dog mascot, Woofster, was introduced in Worcester on August 26, 2021. The Worcester Red Sox Mascot Factory offers a variety of mascots, including the popular “Smiley Red Hat Plush”.
