The Drive rallied for three runs in the bottom of the second inning off Juan Carela to set the tone early. They added five more on six hits in the bottom of the third and another in the fourth to chase the right-hander from the game.
It was a tough night for Carela (0-1), who allowed nine runs (eight earned) on 12 hits in 3.1 innings. He struck out four and did not walk a batter.
Greenville tacked on four more runs in the fifth against Ryan Anderson, and plated an additional four in the seventh against Carlos Gomez to go up 17-4. Harrison Cohen tossed 1.1 scoreless innings to close out the game, as the Drive banged out 19 hits.
Alexander Vargas finished 3-for-4 with a double and Caleb Durbin went 2-for-4 with a double for the Renegades.
