Tough Losses

Looking Ahead

The Aces have announced their 2025 home schedule, which promises to be an exciting season with 75 games at Greater Nevada Field. The upcoming season will feature six-game series each week, with every Monday off as a universal day off.

In conclusion, the Reno Aces have shown flashes of brilliance over the past week, but they have also faced some tough losses. As they look ahead to the rest of the season and into 2025, the team will aim to build on their strengths and improve their consistency.
