Reno Aces News Release


Reno, Nev. - With the bases loaded in the 10th inning, Bryson Brigman scored the winning run on a wild pitch to lift the Reno Aces (11-1, 46-41) to a 7-6 victory over the Sacramento River Cats (3-9, 47-40) in Saturday's series finale at Greater Nevada Field.

With the win, Reno officially completed the series sweep against Sacramento, extending their winning streak to an incredible 11 games.

After back-to-back walk-off heroics on Thursday and Friday, Andres Chaparro came through again for his squad, mashing a three-run blast in the eighth inning to give Reno a 6-5 lead before Sacramento tied the game in the top half of the ninth. The power hitter was unbelievable in the series against the River Cats, going 15-for-24 (.625) with six extra-base hits, three home runs, and 15 RBI.

Kyle Garlick and Blaze Alexander each smashed solo home shots. Alexander tallied his first as a member of the Reno Aces and Garlick collected his team-leading 18th big fly.

Albert Almora gathered three hits, including a triple to lead the bottom half of the first inning. In the past two matchups, the captain of the outfield has gone 6-for-10 with three hits in both games.

The Aces will return to Greater Nevada Field to host the Round Rock Express, the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers, with the first matchup scheduled for Tuesday, July 9 at 12:05 p.m. PT.
