Catcher Tyler Soderstrom continued his hot hitting to help lead Las Vegas to victory over Sacramento on Saturday. The 21-year-old former 1st-round pick tripled in a run in the top of the 5th inning to tie the game, and then tagged his team-leading 14th home run to lead off the 7th, which provided what would prove to be the winning run for Las Vegas. Soderstrom also drew a pair of walks in the game, and he’s now gone 8 for 23 with 4 home runs over his last 6 games for the Aviators. First baseman Dermis Garcia followed Soderstrom’s home run in the 7th with a solo shot of his own and also singled in the game. Left fielder Max Schuemann tripled, walked twice and scored 3 runs, while second baseman Zack Gelof drew 3 walks and stole a base. Right fielder Cody Thomas collected 3 hits, and center fielder Conner Capel singled twice, swiped a pair of bases and drove in 3 runs for the Aviators. Starter Aaron Wilkerson allowed 2 runs and struck out 7 over 5 2/3 frames to earn the victory for Las Vegas.
