Norwich, CT "" The Hudson Valley Renegades (44-23) defeated the Connecticut Tigers (35-32) by the final score of 6-2 Saturday night at Dodd Stadium. 3B Grant Kay (2-4) was a key performer in the win for the Renegades as he put together two hits, two RBIs, and two runs scored performance.

C Franklin Navarro (2-4) provided all the offense for the Tigers after he cut the Renegades lead to 4-2 with a second inning two run double.
