Drive fall at Hudson Valley
WAPPINGERS FALLS, N.Y. — Kyle Carr tossed 6.2 strong innings and the Hudson Valley Renegades held off a late Greenville rally to claim a 2–1 win Tuesday night at Heritage Financial Park in the first of a six-game series. Carr (1–4) earned his first win of the season, allowing just one run on three hits while striking out five and walking three. The left-hander's only blemish came on a solo home run by Freili Encarnacion in the fifth inning that cut the Renegades' lead to 2–1. Lefty Jorvani Moran made a rehab start for the Drive, going only 2/3 of an inning before being replaced by reliever Adam Smith to close out the first inning. Hudson Valley (35–22) scratched out single runs in the first and second innings to take an early lead. Parks Harber doubled with two outs in the first and came around to score on Coby Morales' RBI single to right. Alexander Vargas doubled home Jose Colmenares in the second off the second reliever out of the Drive bullpen Payton Tolle to make it 2–0. Tolle, the Red Sox No. 15 Prospect, was excellent in relief for Greenville (30–28), striking out eight over five innings while allowing just three hits and one run. Cooper Adams followed with two scoreless innings to keep the Drive within striking distance. Encarnacion's homer, his second of the season, came on a full count with two outs in the fifth, but Greenville couldn't generate any additional offense despite drawing four walks and being hit by two pitches. The Drive's best chance came in the eighth, when they loaded the bases with two outs. But reliever Hueston Morrill induced a popout from Nazzan Zanetello to escape the jam and then worked a clean ninth for his third save. Encarnacion reached base all three times he came to the plate, going 1-for-1 with a homer, a walk, and a hit-by-pitch. Franklin Arias and Johanfran Garcia collected the other two hits for Greenville, who went 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position and stranded seven on base. Colmenares led the Renegades with two hits, a walk, and a stolen base. Harber added a double and a walk, while Vargas contributed his first double of the season and an RBI. The Renegades stole three bases and left eight runners on, but their early offense and strong bullpen featuring scoreless outings from Tony Rossi and Morrill, were enough to secure the victory in front of a crowd of 1,710. Game two of the series is scheduled for Wednesday evening at Heritage Financial Park. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

2 adults wanted for kidnapping as Fitchburg police continue to search for 5 missing children
Arrest warrants have been issued for two adults as Fitchburg police continue to search for five children who were reported missing earlier this week. Ruth Encarnacion and Isael Rivera are both wanted on five counts of custodial kidnapping of a minor by a relative, according to the Fitchburg Police Department. Police on Thursday announced that they were trying to track down Encarnacion, Rivera, and the kids they live with, including 10-year-old Alexandra Rivera, 9-year-old Alejandro Rivera, 5-year-old Alonzo Rivera, 4-year-old Abigail Rivera, and 9-month-old Adonis Rivera. Law enforcement launched an investigation into the family's whereabouts after receiving a missing person report for Encarnacion on Monday. The Department of Children and Families then reported her five children missing on Wednesday. Police noted that preliminary information indicates the family is traveling in a black 2018 Infiniti QX60 with Massachusetts registration 5GCX18. An Amber Alert hasn't been issued because the designation is 'not intended for missing child incidents involving parental kidnapping or child custody situations that lack specific information about the children in imminent danger of serious bodily harm or death,' according to police. The Fitchburg Police Department Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Worcester District Attorney's Office are working together on the investigation. Anyone with information is urged to contact Fitchburg police at 978-345-9650. This is a developing story. Check back for updates as more information becomes available.
