RENO, Nev. - Jeff Bailey's record-setting eight-RBI afternoon led Reno to a 14-7 victory over Portland Sunday afternoon at Aces Ballpark.

Bailey set the tone with a grand slam in the first inning, and followed it up with a three-run double in the second to put the Aces ahead 7-0 in a game that saw the teams combine for 21 runs and 24 hits. The Beavers tried to close the gap, cutting the lead to 9-5 in seventh, but Reno would answer with a four-run frame to extend the lead.

In the seventh, Ed Rogers knocked an RBI-double to the right-field corner, and Brandon Allen delivered a knockout blow with a three-run triple to right field that gave the Aces a 13-6 lead.

Bryan Augenstein (3-6) earned the win for Reno, allowing just two runs over six inning of work. Augenstein struck out five without allowing a walk, before three Aces relievers closed the door on the Beavers.

Matt Buschmann (0-4) took the loss for Portland, as he was lifted after just 1.1 innings of work. The Beavers starter allowed seven runs-six earned-before handing the ball to the bullpen, who kept Portland in the game before the Aces four-run seventh.

Bailey set a new Aces franchise record with eight RBIs on the afternoon, while Allen added three RBIs and drew two of Reno's 10 walks. Carlos Corporan continued his hot hitting Sunday, going 3-for-5 with a double and his sixth home run of the season, a towering blast leading off the eighth inning.

The two teams square off for game three of this four-game set Monday evening, with Aces RHP Kevin Mulvey (0-5, 5.30 ERA) set to face Portland RHP Will Inman (2-3, 3.42 ERA). First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. from Aces Ballpark, and 1,500 fans 18 and older will receive an Aces adult replica jersey before the game.
