Carlos Rosa recorded the game's final four outs to pick-up his third save.

The Aces posted three runs in the first inning, and they would never trail. Portland put up single runs in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings Monday, but Reno's offense kept pace, scoring twice in the seventh and eighth, and adding an insurance run in the ninth.

Carlos Corporan led the Aces with three hits, including two doubles and an RBI. Ryan Roberts, Jeff Bailey and Pedro Ciriaco each collected two hits on the night for Reno, leading a 12-hit Aces attack. Reno hit five doubles off Portland starter Cesar Carrillo.
