Notes & Information

Hit King: Ildemaro Vargas cemented himself in the Aces history books as the all-time hit king earlier this season. Tonight, Vargas joined Yasmany Tomas (May 20 vs. TAC) and Domingo Leyba (6/29 @ LV) as the only Aces players to record five hits in a single contest this season. The speedy infielder has accomplished this feat once before - July 19, 2018 vs. Tacoma.

Sweep: For the first time since 2012, the Reno Aces have completed back-to-back series sweeps. The Aces swept the Tacoma Rainiers in a three-game series in Northern Nevada July 23-25 prior to sweeping the Grizzlies July 26-28. The last time Reno completed back-to-back series sweeps was May 4-7, 2012 vs. Tacoma and May 8-11 in Memphis.
