Reno Aces News Release
Reno, Nev. - Deyvison De Los Santos showcased his 60-grade power tool, launching two monstrous home runs, including a 390-foot grand slam, to lead the Reno Aces (1-1, 36-41) to a 9-8 victory over the Oklahoma City Baseball Club (1-1, 41-36) on Wednesday at Greater Nevada Field.

Albert Almora played a crucial role in the win. The 30-year-old delivered a clutch RBI single in the sixth inning to give Reno the lead. However, he made more of an impact with his glove. With two outs and two runners on in the ninth, Almora came through with an incredible leaping catch at the wall to save and solidify the victory.
