BATTLING THE BLUECLAWS: The Hudson Valley Renegades return home for a six-game series against the Jersey Shore BlueClaws, the High-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies. It's the second of four meetings between the Renegades and the BlueClaws, and the first of two meetings at Heritage Financial Park. The BlueClaws won the first six-game series in Jersey Shore 4-2 after the Renegades took the first two games.
RED-HOT CORE: Since returning from the IL on 5/26, Core Jackson is slashing .306/.469/.722 (11-for-36), 8 R, 4 2B, 1 3B, 3 HR, 12 RBI, 10 BB, 7 K. Additionally, Jackson has gotten on base in 12 of his last 13 games played, going 14-for-42 (.333) with 5 2B, 3B, 3 HR, 12 RBI, 10 BB. Jackson more than doubled his home run total, and nearly doubled his RBI total since returning from the IL.
HOMER HAPPY: Despite dropping four of six games to the Bowling Green Hot Rods last homestand, the Renegades clubbed 12 home runs in the series, about 27.3% of their season total (12-of-44). The last time the Renegades hit at least 12 home runs in a single series was 7/25-7/30/2023 at Hickory when Hudson Valley hit 19 HR. It is the first time hitting at least a dozen home runs in a series at Heritage Financial Park since 9/7-9/11/2021 vs Brooklyn, when they hit 14 HR in a seven-game series. The Renegades have hit 26 homers in their last 14 games which is 44.8% of their season total of 58 home runs.
SIX OF ONE AND A HALF DOZEN: With their 10-3 loss on Wednesday at Frederick, the Renegades dropped to six games under .500 for the first time as a New York Yankees affiliate (since 2021). Thursday is the first time that Hudson Valley has begun a day six-games under .500 since July 18, 2017, when the 'Gades were 10-16. However, the Renegades won their next four games and went 34-16 for the rest of the season, ultimately winning their third and final New York-Penn League Championship.
HOME RUN KING: Josh Moylan became the Renegades' all-time career home run leader with his 25th long ball on 6/10 vs. Jersey Shore. Moylan has 10 home runs in 2026 which is a career high, seven of which have come since 5/21. Moylan is one of just eight players in team history in the 20 homer club, with seven of the members joining in the Yankees era (2021-Present).
MAY STRUGGLES: Hudson Valley came into the second month of the 2026 season with a 0.5 game lead atop the South Atlantic League North. However, the 'Gades lost five of their first six May games and were shortly thereafter swept for the first time ever in a six-game series by the Frederick Keys. The Renegades had multiple losing streaks of at least four games long in May, and they won just one series (taking four of six games at home against Winston-Salem). The Renegades were 6-12 at home in May and 9-18 overall. Despite their team batting average being nearly identical in April and May, the 'Gades saw their team ERA jump by more than 1.00 over the month. That was largely due to Renegades pitching throwing a 7.20 ERA in their final series of the month against Bowling Green.
GIVE AND TAKE: Since Core Jackson returned from the IL on 5/26, the Renegades have had more offensive firepower. The 'Gades averaged 6.3 runs scored across their last two series compared to just 4.4 runs across their other three series in May. The 'Gades also scored more than five runs on seven occasions. However, the 'Gades have seen a major uptick in their team ERA. After delivering a 3.15 ERA in April that was best in High-A, the Renegades put up a 4.93 ERA in May. Through six games in June, the 'Gades have a 7.92 June ERA, relegating them from having one of the top-three best team ERAs in High-A to having the fourth best team ERA in the SAL.
SHAKA'S FLYING: Allen Facundo was named the SAL Pitcher of the Week on 6/8 for his performance on 6/4 at Frederick. Facundo struck out 12 batters across 6.0 hitless innings while walking four and picking up the win. It was the second time this season that Facundo struck out at least 12 batters, and his third start out of his last four that he completed 6.0 innings. He didn't allow a single hit or a run, making him just one of five 'Gades pitchers since HV became a Yankees affiliate in 2021 to accomplish the feat.
CARDIAC 'GADES: Hudson Valley has grabbed three walk-off wins through the first 32 games of the season. They won the first two games against Brooklyn (4/19 and 4/20) on walk off home runs hit by INF Kaeden Kent (4/19) and INF Kyle West (4/20. Kent and West's walk-off homers marked the first time in the Portal Era (since 2005) that the Renegades hit walk-off home runs in back-to-back games. Connor McGinnis added his name to the walk-off tally on 5/8 against the Winston-Salem Dash with a walk-off single off flamethrower Pierce George. Most recently, the Cardiac 'Gades struck on 5/28 and 5/31 against the best team in the SAL, the Bowling Green Hot Rods. On the 28th, the 'Gades trailed by five after the first inning, and a four-run bottom of the eighth featuring home runs from Josh Moylan and Core Jackson gave the Renegades a two-run edge over the Hot Rods. On the 31st, the 'Gades trailed by two in the bottom of the ninth before Jackson and West hit back-to-back homers. Eric Genther then drew a 2-out, bases loaded walk in the bottom of the 10th to win it.
FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING: The Renegades suffered their first six-game sweep in franchise history at the hands of the Frederick Keys the last time the two teams met in May, and had a -20 run differential in the series. Over the six games, HV tallied just eight hits and one run across innings 7-9. Additionally, Renegades pitching got hit with a 5.17 team ERA over the six-games. Renegades starters had a 6.49 ERA over the series. It was the first time the Renegades had been swept in a series longer than two games since Aug. 17-19, 2019 against the Staten Island Yankees at Heritage Financial Park.
FOXY SHAZAM: In game two of the Renegades doubleheader at Brooklyn on 5/21, Rory Fox threw a 7-inning complete game shutout, winning South Atlantic League Pitcher of the Week honors for the performance. Fox delivered just the second such game by a Renegades start since the 2009 season when Kyle Carr also threw a 7-inning CG SHO against the Cyclones on 7/2/2025 (G2) at Heritage Financial Park. Before that, Hudson Valley had not had a CG SHO of at least 7.0 innings since 8/23/2009 (G1), when Jason McEachern blanked the Staten Island Yankees at Heritage Financial Park.
ALLEN'S WORLD: Allen Facundo tied the Renegades single-game franchise record with 13 strikeouts on 5/21 (G1) at Brooklyn. The left-hander matched Drew Thorpe's performance from 7/22/2023, also against Brooklyn. Since 2005, Hudson Valley pitchers have only struck out 12-or-more batters in a game six times, with Facundo joined by Thorpe (2x), Baron Stuart, Elmer Rodriguez, and Xavier Rivas. Facundo and Rivas are the only Renegades left-handed pitchers to record at least a dozen punchouts in a game.
ER-YAY: The Renegades boast the seventh-best ERA in High-A Baseball (4.38). The 'Gades were one of just a handful of teams to have a sub-4.00 ERA for the first eight weeks of the season. However, their ERA jumped above 4.00 on 5/29 after Bowling Green scored 13 runs. The Renegades have led the SAL in ERA in four straight seasons (2022-25), including a 2.82 mark in 2025 which was the lowest team ERA in MiLB since 2019. Additionally, the Renegades have struck out a league-high 631 batters this season. The Renegades are averaging 10.87 strikeouts per game and have struck out double-digit batters in all but 19 contests this season.
KAEDEN'S WORLD: Kaeden Kent leads the South Atlantic League and all High-A batters in hits with 68 this season. While his batting average ranks just 17th among qualified hitters in the league, Kent has gotten on base in 37 of his last 47 games played. Additionally, he has hits in 32 of his last 46 games, going 56-for-190 (.295) with 26 RBI and 13 BB. Kent is also in a four-way tie for most doubles in High-A (15).
ON-BASE ANIMALS: Multiple Renegades batters are now settling into their season and putting together impressive on-base streaks. There are currently 11 HV players with multi-game on-base streaks, and five players with on-base streaks that are at least five games long. Leading the way is IF Enmanuel Tejeda with a 10-game on-base streak.
TAKING MANY FOR THE TEAM: Renegades C Eric Genther was hit by a pitch on 6/10 to grab an MiLB third-most 14 HBPs in 2026. Through only 58 games, Genther is just one HBP shy of tying the Renegades single-season record for HBP of 15, belonging to Robby Price (2010) and Ryder Mathias (2005). Garrett Martin holds the Yankees-era record with 14 HBP in 2024. However, Genther has a long way to go to catch Ripken Reyes' MiLB record of 49 HBPs in 119 games with San Antonio (AA, SD) in 2023.
MAMA SAID SHUT YOU OUT: After a 5-0 shutout win over the Jersey Shore BlueClaws on 6/9 at home, the Renegades lead Minor League Baseball with 42 shutouts thrown since the beginning of the 2024 season. It's their first nine-inning shutout win since 4/9 vs. Wilmington, and their third of the season after setting franchise records in each of the last two years with 19 and 20 shutouts, respectively.
MILESTONE MAY: The Hudson Valley Renegades welcomed their 5 millionth fan all-time to Heritage Financial Park on 5/26 when they took on the Bowling Green Hot Rods. Heritage Financial Park opened in 1994, encouraging over 5 million fans to come out to the ballpark for the fun of Renegades baseball.
BEST IN SHOW: The Renegades had the lowest team ERA (2.82) among full-season MiLB teams in 2025. It was also the lowest single-season ERA for any full-season MiLB team since the reorganization of the minors in 2020. Since the start of the 2021 season, the Renegades own a cumulative 3.48 ERA, the lowest in MiLB among MiLB teams who have played every season.
RETURN OF THE KING: INF/OF Josh Moylan is the Renegades all-time franchise leader in: Games Played (261), At-Bats (877), Hits (207), Singles (128), Doubles (47), Home Runs (25), Extra-Base Hits (79), Total Bases (343), Runs (116), RBI (123), Walks (133) and Strikeouts (319). Moylan became the first Renegade ever to surpass 100 career RBIs against Brooklyn on 4/25. Moylan went 3-for-3 with three RBIs.
