Big Day for Mata: Swats 5 Hits Saturday, August 1st , 2026 It was a good day for the Storm Chasers at Aces Ballpark as they clipped the Reno Aces, 19-15. It was tremendous day for Luis Mata, who was on a hitting barrage at the plate, finishing 5-for-7. "I don't know what to call that," the Omaha catcher told reporters after his big performance. "I'm not 'dialed in' or 'in a zone,' I just try to keep it simple. Basically the pitcher throws the ball, I try to pick up the spin, then I hit it. Today I picked up the spin pretty well." Luis Mata flied out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th, flied out in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 10th. Mata has a .341 average and a .373 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 43 hits, 3 home runs and driven in 25 runs. View Boxscore |
