El Paso center fielder Jase Bowen hit for the cycle in the Chihuahuas' 10-5 win over the Tacoma Rainiers at Cheney Stadium Friday night. It was the seventh cycle in Chihuahuas history and the first since Rodolfo Duran's on September 13, 2025 vs. Albuquerque. Bowen was a triple shy of the cycle in the top of the eighth inning when he lined a triple into the right field corner.

Chihuahuas first baseman José Miranda hit a grand slam in the first inning, his first home run of the season. It was El Paso's first grand slam since Tirso Ornelas hit one on September 17, 2025 at Sugar Land. San Diego Padres infielder Sung-Mun Song went 3-for-5 with two RBIs in his sixth MLB Injury Rehab game with the Chihuahuas. Triston McKenzie and Garrett Hawkins both pitched scoreless relief outings for El Paso.

Bowen is 6-for-9 with five extra base hits in his last two games. Tacoma's Patrick Wisdom hit his league-leading fifth home run of the season in the first inning. The Chihuahuas have won two of the first three games in the series.
