Hudson Valley Renegades News Release


Wappingers Falls, N.Y. - The Hudson Valley Renegades dropped their first game of the week to the Asheville Tourists 6-3 on Saturday night at Heritage Financial Park. The loss broke a season-long six-game winning streak by the 'Gades.

Asheville took a 3-0 lead in the first against Andrew Landry, who was making his High-A debut on Saturday for Hudson Valley. Walker Janek was hit by a pitch and Chase Jaworsky singled to put two runners on. Alejandro Nunez drove in both runners with a two-run single. Tyler Whitaker later brought in Nunez with an RBI single of his own.

In the third the Renegades cut the deficit to 3-2. Jackson Castillo drew a one-out walk and Dillon Lewis hit a towering two-run homer, his second long ball in the last two games. Lewis has 16 home runs between Tampa and Hudson Valley this season.

The Tourists extended their lead to 5-2 in the sixth. Nunez reached on an error and Whitaker tripled him home. Whitaker scored on a sacrifice fly by Kenni Gomez.

In the seventh Janek walked and later scored from third on a wild pitch, putting Asheville in front 6-2.

Hudson Valley brought a run across in the eighth to make it 6-3. Anthony Hall walked, Castillo singled, and Lewis walked to load the bases. A walk to Jose Colmenares then forced in Hall from third. However, the Renegades stranded the bases loaded.

In the ninth Hudson Leach earned the save with a scoreless ninth inning, snapping the Renegades' six-game win streak.
