Kristian Robinson put the Aces ahead before the Space Cowboys could blink, launching a line drive to left center for a first-inning homer. Santiago Espinal drove in three runs to back the lead. The Aces improved to 61-74 while the Space Cowboys dropped to 69-66. The teams meet again Saturday.
Robinson's solo shot set the tone early in what became an 8-5 Aces victory, a go-ahead blast that stuck even as the Space Cowboys mounted a rally.
The Space Cowboys actually outhit the Aces 9-8 but could not find the timely at-bats to close the gap, leaving runners in position without capitalizing.
Espinal's three RBIs anchored the Aces attack, providing the cushion they would need in a game that stayed competitive to the final out.
The Aces are coming off a win, 6-4 over their last 10. The Space Cowboys are coming off a loss, 3-7 over their last 10.
