Wappingers Falls, N.Y. (Aug. 17, 2024) - Behind two RBI doubles and a solo home run, the Hickory Crawdads held on for a 4-2 win over the Hudson Valley Renegades on Saturday night at Heritage Financial Park.

In the top of the third, Anthony Gutierrez and Ian Moller led off with a pair of walks against Cade Smith. A two-run double down the right-field line by Dylan Dreiling scored both runners and put the Crawdads ahead 2-0.

The Renegades got a run back in the bottom of the third inning. Antonio Gomez walked and Brenny Escanio reached on a throwing error by Gleider Figuereo, which put runners at second and third. A sacrifice fly by Jace Avina drove in Gomez to make it 2-1.

Malcolm Moore led off the fourth with a double. An RBI two-bagger by Figuereo later in the inning drove in Moore to make it 3-1.

A solo home run by Arturo Disla in the sixth off Matt Keating extended the Hickory lead to 4-1.
