Reed took a eight-run defeat the last time they faced off against Reno, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference. The Raiders came out on top in a nail-biter against the Huskies on Thursday, sneaking past 3-1. For the Raiders, this counts as revenge for the 9-1 win the Huskies walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.
Ryan Vanek spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on eight hits and racked up seven Ks. He also tossed a walk, which is notable because Reed is 3-1 when he allows at most two walks, but 6-8 otherwise.
