Even though the Reno Aces lost in their home regular season finale yesterday 7-6 at Greater Nevada Field, many fans, who came with their dogs, as it was also Dog Day, reminisced on another great season, which will take our Triple-A team to the playoffs.
Players, meanwhile, immediately hit the road to start the Pacific Coast League playoffs in Sugar Land, Texas, against the Space Cowboys Tuesday.
“The dog day has been great,” Jacob in first photo from top left said of Sunday's regular season finale game. “The dogs love it they’re out here hanging out in the sun enjoying a good game and having fun with all the dollar hot dogs.This season's been great to come out, and we’re having a blast.”
“I normally come to all the Reno Aces games with my mom, Colleen Cardger. I’m actually wearing a jersey from the first game the Aces ever played,” Kelsey Adams in top medium photo said. “It's our first dog day. We’re loving dog day. It's hard with an anxious great dane to bring, but we're into supporting locally as much as possible, because we're from Tahoe so we want to make sure we do what we can. We love the games, we love when they get the crowd involved. My mom’s favorite is the YMCA, just getting everybody dancing. Coming from Tahoe, we obviously don't have baseball, but we should have hockey soon which is great, more of a snow experience. But for the most part supporting locally as much as we can. Everybody who turns out is so enthusiastic. I'm wearing a pride hat, I love that we have pride nights, and dog nights, and Veteran nights. It's definitely been a great season.”
“My name’s Bruce Cherry and I come to every last game of the season. I think the Reno Aces are great for a Triple A team. I'm happy to come to their big stadium and enjoy the sights and sounds,” Bruce Cherry in right top photo said.
“I think this ball field is a great way to bring our community together,” Kristen Campbell, on left in middle column said. “ It just feels like our small town in our biggest little city, so it's amazing.”
“Dog days at the Aces are our favorite days because our dog gets to enjoy it with us. He’s a lab pitbull mix, and he loves the dollar hot-dogs too,” Nancy Falcon, from Reno, in middle photo said.
“My experience today is awesome, it's a nice crowd, beautiful weather, “ Dan in middle right photo said.
“We’re season ticket holders, so we’ve had a great season and just wanted to enjoy the last regular season game of the year. Very glad [for the playoffs] and very excited to see them in 1st place!” Jennifer Bascom in bottom left photo, from Sparks said.
“Love this whole 2024 season for the Aces, getting ready for the playoffs,” DJ Rachese in bottom middle photo, from Reno said.
“It’s been a great season, hopefully we can continue it next year, and there can’t be a more perfect day to be out here,” Brian on right of bottom right photo said. “I love to see all the interactive experiences for the fans and to come out here to eat some cheap hot dogs and [drink] some beer. So we’ll keep coming,” Phil Egan (left) said.
