Chihuahuas Use 7-Run Eighth To Surge Past Aces

The El Paso Chihuahuas rallied from a four-run deficit, using a seven-run eighth inning to beat the Reno Aces 13-6.

Samad Taylor led the 16-hit parade by going 3-for-3 with a triple, a walk, and a run scored. Jose Miranda launched a two-run homer, his second blast in as many games and third of season, in the second and finished 2-for-4 with a double and two RBIs. Mason McCoy delivered the signature blow of the eighth, lacing a two-run double to put El Paso ahead for good.

Trailing 6-2 after the top of the fourth, El Paso chipped away on Marcos Castañon's two-run homer, his fourth of the year, in the fourth, a Nick Solak RBI single in the fifth and an unearned run in the sixth that tied the game. In the eighth, McCoy's tiebreaking double plated Anthony Vilar and Clay Dungan, and RBI singles from Jase Bowen, Sung-Mun Song, Solak, Pablo Reyes, and Vilar put the game away. El Paso left seven runners on base.

Starter Jackson Wolf lasted 2⅔ innings, allowing two earned runs on two hits, walking four, and striking out two. The bullpen combined for more than six innings of work, and Eli Villalobos picked up the victory with 1⅓ scoreless frames.

Starter Maikel Miralles took the loss, going 3⅔ innings while allowing eight runs, five earned, on eight hits. He walked three, struck out one, and surrendered two home runs. Matthew Watson followed with 2⅓ scoreless innings of relief, allowing one hit and two walks while striking out one.

Dylan Grego provided the TinCaps' only offensive spark, going 2-for-2 with a double and a two-run home run, his first of the season, in the bottom of the third that trimmed the deficit to 5-2. Alex McCoy singled to extend his Midwest League-best hitting streak to 12 games, one shy of the team record as a High-A franchise.
