A Grand Slam puts Renegades behind, Lose to Bombers 6-2

 June 13, 2021 Renegades v. Bombers Recap 

 

Sunday night was the first game of a six-game homestand for the Jefferson City Renegades, and the team faced off against the Sedalia Bombers to kick off the busy week. 

 

The first inning began off rather uneventful, as strong defenses on both sides recorded three up, three down. 

 

In the top of the second inning, however, things took a turn for the worse for the Renegades. A series of singles and a walk pulled in one run for the Bombers and left the bases loaded for Sedalia’s Gideon Antel, who stepped up to the plate and knocked a grand slam over the fence off of Renegades starting pitcher Trenton Morrow. 

 

Jefferson City was unable to answer in the bottom of the second and, following a pitching substitution in which Morrow was replaced by Braydon Boyer, the third inning began with a score of 5-0. 

 

With the start of the third, it seemed as though the second inning had never happened. Both defenses returned to the field just as strong as in the first inning, and the two teams repeatedly kept their opponent from crossing the plate. 

 

Five scoreless innings ensued. 

 

Finally, in the bottom of the eighth, the Renegades mustered a bit of an offensive comeback. Singles from Ale Claro and Caden Diel, followed by a double from Kolin Demel, brought Claro home. Then, a sacrifice fly from Kaden Helsel to centerfield would score Diel, pulling in a second run for the team. 

 

This offensive burst was just too little, too late for Jefferson City, however, and the Bombers put up another run before holding the Renegades scoreless once again in the ninth inning.  

 

The teams left the field with a final score of 6-2. 

 

Continuing their homestand, Jefferson City will compete against the Chillicothe Mudcats at 7 p.m. Monday at Vivion Field.

Late Night Thriller, Renegades Comeback to Beat Mudcats 13-12

    June  1 4 , 2021 Renegades v.  Mudcat s  Recap   Monday night’s outing between the Jefferson City Renegades and the Chillicothe Mudcats can only be described as an offensive showdown.     The Mudcats jumped out to an early lead, and one that did not look good for the Renegades. With two outs, a combination of hits, errors and passed balls moved Chillicothe around the bases and brought in four runs.     Singles from Brady Voss and Carter Mize, followed by a sacrifice fly from Hamilton Anderson and a single from K aden Helsel, would allow Voss and Mize to come home, making the score 4-2 after the first inning.     Both the Mudcats and the Renegades would each pull in one run in the second inning, Jefferson City doing so through singles from David Dell and Mize, a hit by pitch for Voss and an error that allowed Caden Diel on base.     Following a scoreless third inning, the Chillicothe offense exploded again in the top of the fourth off a series of doubles and walks. The team’s three

Renegades split Double Header with A's, both teams win 1

  June  5 , 2021 Renegades v.  A’ s Recap     Saturday marked the first of multiple double headers for the Jefferson City Renegades, as well as the team’s first outing against the Clarinda A’s.     It would prove to be a back-and-forth night between the two, resulting in two similar games with two opposite outcomes.     The first game kicked off slowly, with neither team scoring until the bottom of the third inning when Jefferson City’s Tommy Reuther sent a solo shot over the centerfield fence to put the Renegades up 1-0.     Reuther, recording  three  fantastic catches in leftfield for Jefferson City in addition to his homerun ,  would be the team’s offensive and defensive star of the game.     While the team maintained their lead through the scoreless fourth inning, it painfully slipped away in the top of the fifth. Following a walk, a wild pitch and an error, the A’s went ahead 2-1, while the Renegades struggled to find solid pitching. Starting pitcher Trenton Morrow was replaced by

Anderson's big night propels Renegades to a win, Shut out of Bombers

June 18, 2021 Renegades v. Bombers Recap Friday night’s outing between the Jefferson City Renegades and the Sedalia Bombers got off to a very slow start. Though the Renegades were able to put a few runners on, even loading the bases at one time, four scoreless innings passed before any type of crossing the plate would occur. Finally, in the bottom of the fifth inning, Carter Mize reached first on a walk and was subsequently brought home by a homerun from Hamilton Anderson to put Jefferson City ahead, 2-0. The Bombers once again failed to score in the top of the sixth inning, and Jefferson City remained offensively hot. Four more Renegades added to the team’s lead; Dawson Shuemann and Ale Claro both scoring following singles, plus Caden Diel, following a walk, and Brady Voss, following a hit by pitch, both coming home from a double by Anderson. Jefferson City continued to hold Sedalia to zero runs throughout the remainder of the game, picking up one additional run in the bottom of the e
