West Sacramento, Calif. – Three solo homers were not enough to lift the Sacramento River Cats (52-68) to victory as they fell 13-4 to the first place Reno Aces (68-52) on Thirsty Thursday.
Reno took a quick 1-0 lead when center fielder Corbin Carroll, MLB Pipeline’s No. 3 overall prospect, lined a solo shot 463 feet to center field (112.2 MPH exit velocity).
