Reno, NV – Ali Sánchez singled, doubled twice, and homered in an 11-3 Reno Aces (26-16) victory over the Sacramento River Cats (20-22) Thursday night at Greater Nevada Field.
Sánchez and Alek Thomas (4-for-5, 2B) spearheaded another eruptive offensive night for the Aces. After scoring 22 runs combined in the first two wins of the series, Reno brought 11 more across with 18 hits in Thursday’s drubbing.
