Pinto on Fire, 5-for-5 Against Reno
Wednesday, June 25th , 2025
René Pinto put on a hitting clinic as the Sacramento River Cats dumped the Reno Aces, 20-2, at Sutter Health Park.
The Sacramento catcher made Reno defenders earn their pay, lashing Reno pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."
"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Pinto said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
René Pinto walked in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 6th, hit a two-run single in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
This season, Pinto is batting at a .338 clip with 12 home runs and 47 RBIs.
