Logan Allen’s sparkling performance on the mound led the way in the Reno Aces (3-1, 38-41) 3-1 victory over the Oklahoma City Baseball Club (1-3, 41-38) on Friday at Greater Nevada Field. Allen punched out a season-high six batters in 5 1/3 frames with only one walk, helping Reno secure their third consecutive win.
 Adrian Del Castillo smashed his 15th home run of the campaign, a 403-foot shot into right field to put the Aces up 3-0. The big fly is the backstop’s Pacific Coast League-leading 47th extra-base hit of the year.
 Pavin Smith started the scoring with an RBI triple in the bottom of the first to drive in Del Castillo. Since June 20th, the 28-year-old has gone 14-for-31 (.451) with six extra-base hits, five RBI, and five walks in 35 plate appearances.
 Deyvison De Los Santos stepped in behind Smith, driving his teammate in on a line-drive RBI single into left field. The Diamondback’s #14 overall prospect has been on a terror since his promotion to AAA-Reno, slashing .308/.355/.615 with nine home runs and 29 RBI in 130 at-bats.
 Austin Pope delivered his 11th consecutive scoreless inning after punching out two in his lone inning of work in the win. In that stretch, the right-hander has struck out 21 while only allowing one walk.
 The Aces will look to tie a season-high four consecutive wins in Saturday’s matchup against the Oklahoma City Baseball Club, with the first pitch scheduled for 6:35 p.m. PT.
