Lakewood, N.J. (Aug. 23, 2025) - A five-run outburst in the bottom of the third sunk the Hudson Valley Renegades on Saturday night in an 8-3 defeat by the Jersey Shore BlueClaws at ShoreTown Ballpark.
The BlueClaws took the lead in the bottom of the second, plating a run against Andrew Landry on a Brock Vradenburg sacrifice fly to take a 1-0 lead.
The Renegades answered back in the top of the third, taking the lead after an RBI single by Kaeden Kent and an RBI double from Juan Matheus against Luke Gabrysh to take a 2-1 advantage.
In the bottom of the third, the BlueClaws struck for five runs and sent 11 batters to the plate, taking a commanding 6-2 lead.
