HR: Cortes (11)

RHP Kade Morris and left fielder Carlos Cortes led Las Vegas to a double-digit win over Albuquerque on Wednesday. Last week’s Pacific Coast League Pitcher of the Week turned in another outstanding start, allowing 1 run on just 4 hits through 7 innings to earn the victory for Las Vegas. Morris threw 86 pitches, 55 for strikes, and the 23-year-old righty has now allowed just 1 run in his last 14 innings of work for the Aviators. Left fielder Carlos Cortes went 4 for 4 with an RBI double and slugged a grand slam in the 3rd inning to give Las Vegas an early lead. Right fielder Nick Martini singled, doubled, drew a walk and drove in a pair, while second baseman Zack Gelof drilled a pair of doubles, drew a walk and drove in a run, and designated hitter Shea Langeliers went 2 for 3 and scored twice in his first rehab game with Las Vegas.
