Recap
Matt
Bowman was effective at not allowing any damage over 6 innings for Las Vegas
Saturday night, and the offense exploded for 10 runs, as this became a laugher
by the end. Bowman may have held Reno scoreless over 6 innings, but he recorded
0 strikeouts, and only 1 swinging strike during the start, which is a poor
recipe for success. Wilfredo Tovar continued his rampage at the top of the 51s
batting order, and 5 other players had multiple hit games too, including 5
doubles and 2 blasts, and that is always a good recipe for success. The 51s
bullpen was not at its best, especially when it came to bailing each other out,
but a 5-run outburst in the 7th gave them more than enough padding
to work with.
After reaching base 5 times on
Friday night, Tovar followed up by reach 4 times Saturday, starting his night
with a single in the 1st. He’d steal 2B and score on a double from
Monell. Conrad followed with an RBI single to RF, and Las Vegas quickly had a
2-0 lead.
Bowman did not have an easy go of
it, but his reliable sinker was still getting the results he needs for success.
He walked two straight with two outs in the 1st to load the bases
for Peter O’Brien, but Bowman would induce the third groundout of the inning to
end the threat. Worth would reach with a leadoff single grounded into CF in the
2nd, but then Bowman retired the next 3 straight, including two on
lineouts to LF. Dorn would leadoff with a single in the 3rd, but
Bowman stranded him at 2B thanks to 2 groundouts and a popout on the infield.
He had to work around another single from Worth in the 4th, but he
again got groundballs to escape the inning. A one-out single in the 5th
was erased by a double play groundout from Nick Evans. After a one-out single
in the 6th, Bowman induced a grounder to Reynolds, but they could
get one out. Worth followed with his third single off of Bowman (on a grounder
to Tovar), but he got another groundout to end his night.
Tovar led off the 5th
with a double, and then scored on a bomb from Brooks Conrad. After the Aces
broke through for a run in the top of the 7th, Las Vegas scored 5 in
the bottom half. Tovar sparked this rally too, leading things off with a walk.
After Reynolds singled, Monell connected with his second RBI double of the
game, bringing home two. Brandon Allen added another pair with a 2R blast to
RF, a no-doubter. After a pitching change, the offense just kept rolling, and
Taijeron joined the hit parade with a double to LF. He’d score on Rivera’s
third hit of the game. in the 8th, Allen nearly added another bomb,
but had to settle for an RBI double off the wall.
This series wraps up Sunday
afternoon at 3 PM, and Logan Verrett has a chance to give the 51s a 4-game
sweep over Reno.
