Diamondbacks Minor League Recap 5/1/16: Dingers O'Brien Hits a Walk-Off Home Run for the Aces

Peter O'Brien hit a walk-off HR for the Aces tonight. Check out what else happened in the Diamondbacks minor league system.

The Diamondbacks minor league system went 2-2 today with wins from the Reno Aces and Visalia Rawhide. Both teams received strong pitching performances by their starters. Peter O'Brien continues to mash pitching in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, but given the lack of a defined MLB position that he can play in Arizona, he is stuck there.
