The Croniac: Kevin Cron launched his Pacific Coast League leading 30th home run of the season last night. He's played in just 58 games this season for the Aces. He is just the third player in franchise history to have a season with at least 30 longballs. Christian Walker accomplished the feat in 2017 with 32 blasts, Kyle Jensen did it in 2016 with 30. Cron is four home runs away from becoming Reno's all-time leader in homers. He currently has 52, Brandon Allen and Mike Jacobs hold the record with 55 dingers each.

Franchise Record: Braden Shipley earned his third win of the season last night. The win also tied the University of Nevada, Reno alum with Charles Brewer for the franchise record in wins with 24. Shipley is 24-19 over 91 games pitched for the Aces since 2016.
