Renegades Use Late Score to Top Nationals, 3-2
Crowds lined up early in front of Renegades Field, eagerly awaiting the start of the 2026 Major League Baseball season. On the mound was Victor Herrera for the visiting Washington Nationals and John Mannon for the hometown Lake Wylie Renegades. In a spirited contest, the Renegades pulled out the win, defeating the Nationals by the score of 3-2. Especially impressive was Victor Herrera. Reliever Michael Ceja picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Danny Rutter took the loss.

The decisive blow was delivered by Justin Riojas in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 26-year old left-handed pitcher Danny Rutter to win the game for Lake Wylie. The home crowd went nuts.

"The crowd went nuts," Riojas said.
