I began wondering how much experience, knowledge and expertise the Yankee "Hitting" Instructors/ Coaches had and what MLB teams and players they had previously coached. I was thinking I would.

Around this time last year, America’s manufacturing industry was thrust into the fight against the deadliest pandemic in a century, including a little-known Hudson maker of elastic products.
United Stretch Design Corp., located in an unassuming warehouse in an industrial park off of Route 62, became one of those industrial heroes of the COVID-19 pandemic when the company produced millions of yards of elastic used on facemasks to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

This even came as the company’s core business – the automotive industry – ground to a halt last year.
“Thankfully, we were able to keep everybody employed,” said Eric Chaves, operations manager and son of President and Founder Manuel Chaves. “In fact, we were working Saturdays and Sundays around the clock.”
HUDSON – An undetermined electrical event sparked a blaze earlier this month at a Felton Street apartment building that left nine people homeless.
Fire officials recently completed their investigation of the Dec. 7 fire at 29-31 Felton St. Fire Chief Bryan Johannes stressed residents should not use extension cords with space heaters. The chief said space heaters draw a lot of power and some extension cords are not rated to carry the amperage of a space heater.
All nine residents of the apartment building were able to escape the fire uninjured. No firefighters were injured during the blaze, which took firefighters from Hudson, Marlborough, Stow and Sudbury about 30 minutes to extinguish.
