Rainiers Trip Aces, 3-2, in Extra Innings
Tacoma turned a good performance from starting pitcher Norberto Martínez into a 3-2 triumph over the Reno Aces at Cheney Stadium. Tacoma reliever Robbie Jones picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Dave Hensley was saddled with the loss. The loss has the Aces at 1-7.

Tacoma got a knockout punch from Jheyser Azuaje. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Norberto made his pitches," said Tacoma manager Mario Garza.
