Wappingers Falls, NY - The Hudson Valley Renegades drew closer to a playoff spot on Wednesday night with a 3-0 victory over the Asheville Tourists at Heritage Financial Park. With the victory, their magic number for a playoff spot is down to 1.

The Renegades jumped in front 1-0 in the first. George Lombard drew a one-out walk and Josh Moylan lined an RBI double to center in the ensuing at-bat to bring in Lombard.
