For the third time in three nights, Tacoma played comeback kids. Reno jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead in the first inning thanks to two Rainiers' errors and three hits. Yasmany Tomás and Juniel Querecuto had RBI ground outs and catcher Caleb Joseph kept pace with a RBI-single. However, the lead was short lived as Tacoma answered back with four runs by the bottom of the third inning highlighted by a 2-RBI double off the bat off of designated-hitter Tim Lopes.
Domingo Leyba changed that in the top of the sixth inning on a 2-out, 2-RBI single up the middle scoring outfielders Andrew Aplin and Tim Locastro to put the Aces ahead 5-4. Again, Tacoma didn't say die as they put up a four-run bottom of the sixth. Outfielder Mallex Smith summond the big blow that inning on a three-run jack to right field off reliever Ben Taylor. The Rainiers' bullpen did the rest shutting down the Aces bats in the 7th, 8th, and 9th surrendering no runs and two hits. Rainiers' reliever Parker Markel struck out all five batters he faced in the eighth and ninth innings as he picked up the save.
The Reno Aces have tomorrow technically off but the club will play as "Los Corazones de Reno" in the first Copa de la Diversión game of the season at Greater Nevada Field.
