The Tacoma Rainiers beat the El Paso Chihuahuas 13-10 in 10 innings Tuesday in the opener of a six-game series between the top two teams in the Pacific Coast League. It was the Chihuahuas’ third trip to extra innings in their last seven games.

Trailing 5-0, El Paso scored nine runs on nine hits in a 14-batter bottom of the third to come back and take the lead. It was the most hits in an inning for El Paso this year. Yonathan Perlaza, Rodolfo Duran and Tim Locastro all homered in the rally for the Chihuahuas. Duran and Locastro’s homers were the first set of back-to-back home runs for El Paso since Nate Mondou and Luis Campusano on August 19 at Sacramento.

The Chihuahuas dropped to 3-8 in extra-inning games, while Tacoma advanced to 3-6. Tacoma is now in first place, 1.5 games ahead of the second place Chihuahuas in the Pacific Coast League second half standings. At four hours and three minutes, Tuesday’s game was El Paso’s longest of the season.
