Opening Night at the Renegades

Got to photograph opening night of the Hudson Valley Renegades baseball team. They are the farm team to the Tampa Bay Rays. Tonight was a night of not only baseball, but good food and entertainment. I photographed for both the feature story, and the sports section. Here are a few of my favorites.

Aberdeen Ironbirds catcher Brian Ward tags out Hudson Valley Renegades outfielder Dustin Biell on an in-the-park homerun attempt during the Hudson Valley Renegades opening night at the Dutchess Stadium on June, 19. The 'Gades went up 4-0 in the first inning against the Aberdeen Ironbirds.

If you want it, the Renegades have it. Be it hot dogs, burgers, beer, fries, or some good o'l fried dough, opening night at the Hudson Valley Renegades is not just a night of baseball, but a night of food, family, and fun.
