The Reno Aces will be moving on to the Triple-A Championship Game for the first time in 10 years, as they defeat the El Paso Chihuahuas 6-2. The Aces got a big home run from Jake Hager, the game’s MVP, and capitalized on four El Paso errors.
Brandon Pfaadt did not have his best stuff on the night, as he didn’t have the pinpoint command that he normally has. Nonetheless, Pfaadt was able to battle for 5 innings and held El Paso to just 2 runs thanks to some great defense behind him. Dominic Fletcher and Blaze Alexander connected on a perfect relay to cut down a runner trying to score from first on a double.
