Salt Lake City, Utah – Andres Chaparro’s second home run of the day was the deciding factor in the Reno Aces (11-9) 8-7 victory against the Salt Lake Bees (7-14) on Sunday at Smith’s Ballpark. Reno secured five out of six games in the series against Salt Lake with the win.

The Aces found themselves down 6-1 after a disastrous first inning. However, the BLC-Nine was able to rally, generate baserunners, and create opportunities for the offense to score runs. Tied 8-8 in the top of the seventh, Chaparro stepped up to the plate and crushed a Jimmy Herget sinker over the left-center field porch, providing Reno with the lead they needed to secure a win.

Chaparro ended the day going 3-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI. The 24-year-old finished the series going 9-for-24 (.375) with three home runs and seven RBI. He is now tied for 3rd in home runs in the Pacific Coast League with six.

Adrian Del Castillo stayed hot at the plate, registering three hits in five at-bats including a double, and his fifth home run of the season, he drove in two. The Miami native boasts a .355 batting average this season, ranking 4th in the PCL. He leads the PCL in SLG (.726).

In his second appearance as an Ace, Christian Montes De Oca entered the ninth to close out a tight game, collecting his second save of 2024 without allowing a Bee to reach base.

The Reno Aces will return to Greater Nevada Field on Tuesday, April 23, to take on the Sugar Land Space Cowboys, Triple-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, in a six-game series.
