The Chihuahuas were down by a run with two outs and nobody on base before Ben Gamel's double and Ravelo's homer. It was the ninth walk-off win and third walk-off home run for El Paso this season.

Chihuahuas center fielder Oscar Mercado went 2-for-5 with two home runs and five RBIs. It was his second multi-home run game of the season and the 15th by a Chihuahuas player. Mercado has three home runs in his last two games and six in his last nine games. Catcher Brett Sullivan reached base three times on two singles and a walk.
