Wednesday, May 20, 2026 – Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark – Oklahoma City, Okla.
Game Summary: : The Oklahoma City Comets took an early lead then held off a late rally by the Reno Aces to secure their sixth straight win, 6-4, Wednesday night at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark. Oklahoma City put together a three-run first inning with two outs on back-to-back RBI singles from Jack Suwinski and Ryan Fitzgerald. A Reno throwing error following Fitzgerald’s single allowed another OKC run to score for a 3-0 advantage. The Comets (26-20) brought in a run on a fielder’s choice in the third inning for a 4-0 lead. Reno plated a run in the fourth inning and the Comets later got the run back in the sixth inning on a RBI groundout by Chuckie Robinson. Reno (22-25) put up three runs in the eighth inning, fueled by four wild pitches by OKC, a RBI double and a fielder’s choice coupled with a Comets fielding error. Entering the game with two runners on and one out in the eighth inning, Comets pitcher Chayce McDermott issued a walk, then struck out the final two batters he faced to hold the lead. Oklahoma City received some breathing room in the bottom of the eighth with a solo homer off the bat of Noah Miller. McDermott came back out for a clean ninth inning to complete the five-out save.
