| The Park The Hudson Valley Renegades, who play in Dutchess Stadium, were the only affiliated minor league team in upstate New York east of Cooperstown until 2002, when a team moved to Troy. Well, I find it somewhat interesting, and I�m desperate. The ballpark is nice enough, but there is nothing that makes it memorable. It reminds me of New Jersey's Skylands Park on the inside and a bit on the outside, but the outside does not have as much character. |
| That Day We (my son, oldest daughter and I) saw the Renegades, a Tampa Bay Devil Rays affiliate, play the Mahoning Valley Scrappers, the Cleveland Indians� New York-Penn League affiliate, on August 1, 2001. Although the Scrappers had the worst record in the league, they won, 3-1. Scrappers� DH Rickie Morton hit his league leading 10th home run, a solo shot in the 6th, and drove in another run with a single in the 8th. For the home team, RF Luis Candelario drove in the lone run in the 5th, going 3 for 4 on the day. |
