 Reno Aces

Aces' Winning Streak Snapped In 6-3 Loss To Fresno

July 25, 2010 - Pacific Coast League (PCL1)
Reno Aces News Release


RENO, Nev.-Reno pushed across two runs in the ninth inning Saturday night, but the comeback bid fell short as the Aces saw a three-game winning streak come to an end in a 6-3 loss to the Fresno Grizzlies at Aces Ballpark.

Reno trailed 6-1 entering its final at-bat, but an RBI single by Ryan Roberts and a run-scoring double by Mark Hallberg cut the deficit to three. That would be, though, as close as the Aces would get.

Fresno starter Todd Wellemeyer, pitching on a Major League Rehabilitation Assignment, held the Aces offense to just two hits and a run over 4.1 innings of work. After Wellemeyer's exit, four Fresno relievers combined to hold Reno to just two runs over the game's final 4.2 frames. Joe Paterson (3-2) worked two scoreless innings to earn the victory out of the Grizzlies bullpen.

The Aces managed to pick-up just six hits on the night, with no player recording a multi-hit effort. Doug Deeds and Brandon Allen drew three base on balls apiece.

Aces starter Josh Collmenter (2-2) was pinned with the loss after allowing six runs on nine hits over 5.1 innings of work. Collmenter walked three and struck out three.

The Aces and Grizzlies will meet again on Sunday afternoon at Aces Ballpark. RHP Cesar Valdez (2-6, 5.44 ERA) takes the ball for Reno, and RHP Kevin Pucetas (2-5, 5.57 ERA) counters for Fresno. First pitch is set for 1:05 p.m. PT.

Tickets for all Aces games start at just $7, and are available by calling the Reno Aces box office at (775) 334-7000 or by visiting RenoAces.com. The brand-new Freight House District, located just outside Aces Ballpark, is open seven days a week, on both game days and non-game days.
