Las Vegas 5 (2-1), Sacramento 2
The 51s were finally able to get a game in after multiple cancellations with Gabriel Ynoa making his first Triple-A start. He went five innings allowing two runs and struck out four but did not factor into the decision. Chasen Bradford got the win with a scoreless 6th inning while Paul Sewald picked up his first Vegas save with a perfect 9th.
Brandon Nimmo led the 51s offense, going 3 for 4 with a double and the eventual game-winning RBI single in the bottom of the 6th. Ty Kelly played left field and went 2 for 4 with two doubles and three RBI out of the leadoff spot. Rene Rivera made his 51s debut behind the plate, he was 1 for 3 with a HBP and two runs scored.
