Reno, NV - Ali Sánchez and Tristin English each blasted two-run homers in a 10-5 Reno Aces (28-17) win over the Sacramento River Cats (21-24) Sunday at Greater Nevada Field. The game was called official after six full innings.

A seventh inning mix of hail and rain halted play after the Aces opened up a 10-5 lead in the bottom of the sixth. It happened quickly, with a wet, summery mix bombarding onto the field of play.

Sánchez went 2-for-4 with the two-run homer, pushing his series total to six hits in 12 at-bats. English drove in two more runs on the blast to right, his eighth and ninth runs driven in of the series. Buddy Kennedy went 2-for-3 with a two-run double.

Reno won five of six games over Sacramento and haven't lost a series in over a month. The Aces now head on a crucial two week road trip. The first stop is El Paso with first pitch set for Tuesday at 5:05 p.m. PT.

Aces Notables:

- Buddy Kennedy: 2-for-3, 2 2B, 2 RBI
