Шаблон:Infobox Minor League Baseball The Hudson Valley Renegades are a Minor League Baseball team based in Fishkill, New York. The High-A affiliate of the New York Yankees, the Renegades play in the South Atlantic League. The Renegades play their home games at Heritage Financial Park. From 1994 to 2020, the team competed in the Class A Short Season New York–Penn League.
History
The Renegades were founded in 1994 when the Erie Sailors relocated from Pennsylvania to the Hudson Valley, rebranding as the Hudson Valley Renegades. The team originally retained the Sailors' existing affiliation with the Texas Rangers organization but became an affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays organization in 1996. The Renegades became an affiliate club of the New York Yankees in 2021.[1]
New York-Penn League
The Renegades won three New York–Penn League championships in 1999, 2012, and 2017. The team has had a number of future major leaguers such as Scott Podsednik, Jorge Cantu, Ryan Dempster, Joe Kennedy, Craig Monroe, Matt Diaz, Evan Longoria, Josh Hamilton, John Jaso, Wade Davis, and Toby Hall play on it.[2]
On August 10, 2000, Doug Waechter threw the only no-hitter in Renegades history against the Pittsfield Mets.
In October 2005, Scott Podsednik became the first former Renegade to win a World Series with the Chicago White Sox defeating a Houston Astros club which included former Renegades Brandon Backe and Dan Wheeler.
High-A East/South Atlantic League
In conjunction with Major League Baseball's restructuring of Minor League Baseball in 2021, the Renegades were placed into the High-A East league.[3] They won the 2021 Northern Division title with a first-place 71–49 record.[4] Despite winning the division, their record was third-best in the league, and only the two teams with the highest winning percentages in the regular season competed for the league championship.[5]
In 2022, the High-A East became known as the South Atlantic League, the name historically used by the regional circuit prior to the 2021 reorganization.[6]
Ownership
The original owner of the team was the Goldkang Group headed by Marvin Goldklang, which also had stakes in several other minor league baseball teams, including the Charleston RiverDogs and St. Paul Saints. In December 2021, it was announced that The Goldklang Group sold the Renegades to Diamond Baseball Holdings, which as of 2023 is owned by Silver Lake, an American global private equity firm.
Mascots
The team's mascots are a family of anthropomorphic raccoons. "Rookie" the Renegade Raccoon[7] appeared first and Rene Gade in late 1995.[8] The pair was married "in an on-field ceremony" on July 20, 1997.[9][10][11] Occasionally, Rookie's father Roofus also appears as part of the mascot team.[12]Their raccoon mascot son Rascal was born in 2000[13][14] who is due to be married to a skunk named Rosie on July 20, 2024.[15][1] In December 2023, the mascots participated in a holiday yule log event.[16]
Team promotions include a "Fun Team" that promotes between-inning entertainment. Former manager Matt Quatraro coined the nickname "Gades" in 2000.
