Tomorrow's Matchup
Notes & Information
Final Three: All good things must come to an end at some point. Unfortunately for Aces fans, that day will likely be Sunday. The Reno Aces have three remaining home games left (Friday, Saturday & Sunday) in the 2019 campaign. Greater Nevada Field will partner with the Nevada Wolf Pack tomorrow night to bring Wolf Pack Night to Greater Nevada Field. The players will wear custom Nevada-themed jerseys and auction them off throughout the contest. The first 1,000 fans will receive a Wolfie Bobblehead Giveaway presented by Eye Care Professionals.
Sooner or Later: The Aces have hit more home runs this year than ever before. However, entering tonight's game against Salt Lake, Alberto Rosario had not hit a single one. Rosario led off the bottom of the second inning for Reno and swung at the first pitch he saw against Salt Lake right-hander Nick Tropeano. The ball left his bat with an exit velocity well over 100 MPH and sailed over the left-field wall. He became the 34th Aces player this season to hit at least one home run.
