Reno Aces News Release


RENO, Nev. - The Reno Aces had its seven-game winning streak in series openers snapped by the Sacramento River Cats in the team's 8-0 loss on Friday night.

Andrew Young recorded his ninth multi-hit game of the season, going 2-for-4 at the dish with a double.

After a blank top of the first, the River Cats took an early 1-0 lead on an RBI double from Thairo Estrada in the home half. Humberto Mejia worked out of trouble by forcing San Francisco Giants' top prospect Joey Bart to ground into a double play before striking out Jaylin Davis.

The Aces threatened in the second after loading the bases with a pair of singles by Jake McCarthy and Ben DeLuzio and a walk to Bryan Holaday, but could not push a run across and the score remained, 1-0.

Sacramento increased its lead to four, 4-0, on a solo shot from LaMonte Wade Jr., to center and a two-run double by Davis.

Chester Pimental made his Triple-A debut on Thursday, working in and out of trouble while allowing no runs on one hit and striking out Wade Jr., in the fourth.

After a pair of scoreless frames, the River Cats scored twice in the bottom of the sixth on a Drew Robinson two-run home run to right-center increase the Aces' deficit to six, 6-0.

Jeremy Rhoades came on in the seventh and tossed a scoreless frame, striking out Davis and forcing Jason Krizan to pop out to third and Joe McCarthy to ground out to second.

The River Cats tacked on a pair of tallies in the eighth on the two-run single by Estrada to increase the home team's lead, 8-0.

Reno returns to action on Friday against the Sacramento River Cats, with the first pitch slated for 7:05 p.m. PT. Josh Green is slated to take the mound for the Aces, squaring off against rehab starter Aaron Sanchez. Sunday's contest can be heard on renoaces.com or locally on KPLY 630 AM with Zack Bayrouty on the call.
