Chihuhuas spark Fourth of July weekend

With the Fourth of July weekend coming to a close, the El Paso Chihuahuas bested the Reno Aces at home to outright win the series 3-1. The Chihuahuas won the series on Sunday, July 3, when Austin Hedges hit a three-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth to defeat the Aces 4-1.

In the top of the first inning, Kyle Jensen of the Aces hit a RBI single to center field, which drove Mitch Haniger home and allowed the Aces to hit the scoreboard first.

The Chihuahuas responded at the bottom of the first with a run of their own.
