Hudson Valley Renegades News Release


FISHKILL, N.Y. (September 6, 2009) - The Hudson Valley Renegades, Short-Season A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays, are excited to announce that they have set a new single-season attendance record, along with a new per-game average attendance record. During the 2009 season 165,601 fans went through the turnstiles over 36 openings at Dutchess Stadium while breaking the previous mark of 164,425 set in 2006 that had been accomplished over 37 openings that year.

During the 2009 campaign the Renegades averaged 4,600 fans per game. The average of 4,600 tops the previous per-game average attendance record of 4,526 that was set back in 2005.

Not only did the Renegades set new records in overall attendance and average attendance over the course of the season but they also set a single-game attendance record earlier this year. On Thursday, July 16 when 5,253 fans came out to Dutchess Stadium to watch the Renegades take on the Batavia Muckdogs (affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals). The 5,253 fans in attendance that night marked the largest crowd to ever see a Renegades game at Dutchess Stadium.

"I want to thank the fans for making the 2009 season the best season in Renegades history," said General Manager Eben Yager. "The fans have always been the heart of the Renegades so this milestone is not only for the Renegades but also for the fans...thank you!"

With the 2009 season coming to an end the entire Renegades staff would like to say thank you to all of our fans for making this season the best in Renegades history.
