TOEING THE RUBBER: Isotopes starting pitcher Chi Chi González tossed 6.2 no-hit innings before surrendering a double to Las Vegas' Corban Joseph with two outs in the seventh. Gonzalez finished the evening allowing one hit, four walks and struck out five in 7.0 scoreless innings. The quality start was the right-hander's team-leading third of the season … DJ Johnson followed Gonzalez with a scoreless eighth inning … Jesus Tinoco took the loss after yielding an RBI single to Sheldon Neuse with one out in the bottom of the 10th.

AT THE DISH: Albuquerque collected three hits on the evening coming from Garrett Hampson , Pat Valaika and Roberto Ramos . The three hits were tied for their fewest in a game this season … The Isotopes did not record their first of the game until Hampson singled up the middle to lead off the seventh inning.
 
TOPES TIDBITS: The Isotopes have lost four straight games, their longest losing streak of the season … Albuquerque is 2-1 in extra innings in 2019 … The Isotopes have now been shutout four times … Isotopes pitching coach Brandon Emanuel was ejected from the contest in the third inning after Gonzalez threw a pitch inside to Aviators batter Jorge Mateo .
