Notes:
Triples: Travis Snider tripled for his second consecutive game in Tuesday's ballgame. The last time Snider tripled in back-to-back games came all the way back on April 18 & 19, 2007 with Class-A Lansing. His four triples this season are good for second-most in his career. He had seven in 2007 with Lansing.
Lively Arms: Ben Lively made his Greater Nevada Field debut yesterday. Following three starts on the road, Lively saved his best start for the home crowd. The right-hander went five innings, struck out seven and did not allow an earned run. With the win, Lively improves to 5-1 in the Pacific Coast League this season (4-1 with Omaha & 1-0 with Reno).
Wilmer Watch: Wilmer Flores appears to be ready for the Major Leagues. In his second game with Reno on Major League rehab, Flores finished 2-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI. He is 4-9 overall in Reno and has scored two runs and driven in four RBIs.
Save Me: Stefan Crichton recorded his first save of the season for Reno last night against El Paso. The reliever from Texas Christian now has 11 career Minor League saves with the last coming for Triple-A Norfolk on July 24, 2017. Crichton is the seventh Aces pitcher to record a save this season for the Biggest Little City. Crichton, Ben Taylor, Marc Rzepczynski, Rubby De La Rosa, and Robby Scott all have one save this year. Kevin Ginkel has two. Jimmie Sherfy has 12 saves, good for third in the Pacific Coast League. The team is 19-for-34 in save situations in 2019.
