Hudson Valley Renegades News Release


Wappingers Falls, N.Y. - Down 7-5 in the bottom of the ninth, the Hudson Valley Renegades scored three runs to complete an incredible comeback victory over the Jersey Shore BlueClaws on Saturday night for their first win of the 2025 campaign.

In the first Brendan Jones tripled and George Lombard Jr. knocked him in with a sacrifice fly. Later in the frame, Jace Avina doubled and Omar Martinez notched an RBI single to make it 2-0 Hudson Valley.

A Jordan Viars walk, Bryan Rincon single, and Carson DeMartini hit by pitch loaded the bases in the top of the third for Jersey Shore. Viars scored on a Devin Saltiban sacrifice fly. Rincon and DeMartini executed a double steal of home and second during the next at-bat tie the game at 2.

In the bottom of the third, Jackson Castillo walked and scored after a pair of two-out singles from Josh Moylan and Coby Morales to put the Renegades back in front.

Lombard Jr. led off the fourth with a triple before a Castillo RBI single made it 4-2 Renegades.

Jersey Shore tied the game in the fifth. Rincon doubled and De Martini walked. In the next at-bat, with Rincon at third and DeMartini at second, a passed ball by Antonio Gomez allowed both runners to score to make it 4-4.

Gomez broke the deadlock with a solo home run in the fifth for the first Renegades long ball of the season.

In the seventh, Rincon singled and later scored on a throwing error by Tomas Frick to tie the game at 5-5.

The BlueClaws went ahead in the eighth when Eduardo Lopez and Bryson Ware each walked to start the inning. Luke Davis knocked in Lopez with an RBI single, and Ware later scored on a Zach Arnold sacrifice fly to put Jersey Shore in front 7-5.

However, Hudson Valley refused to quit, scoring three runs in the ninth to win in walk-off fashion. A Morales walk, Frick base hit, and Brenny Escanio bunt single loaded the bases with no outs. The next batter, Jones, ripped a double down the right field line, scoring all three runners to give the Renegades a remarkable 8-7 victory.
