RENO- The Bees came up short in the opening game of their eight game road trip, as Salt Lake fell 6-1 to the Aces in Reno on Thursday night. Taylor Lindsey got the game started on a positive note, as he drilled the fourth pitch of the game over the 424 foot mark in right center to give the Bees a 1-0 lead. After Reno tied the game with a run in the second inning, the Aces took control with four runs in the third on an RBI double by Alfredo Marte and back-to-back home runs by Nick Evans and Mike Jacobs.
Bees' starter Justin Thomas (1-2) took the loss, as he went five innings and allowed all six runs on eleven hits with two strikeouts, two walks and three home runs.
