TULSA--Franmil Reyes tied career highs with two homers and six RBI's to lead the Missions to their sixth win in seven games Tuesday night at Oneok Field.

San Antonio increased its lead in the South Division to four games, as both Midland and Corpus Christi lost.

The Missions outhit Tulsa, 14-5, as they reached double-digits in runs for the fourth time this year and the first time since May 1.

Brett Kennedy worked five innings to pick up the win. Kennedy allowed two runs, both on solo homers by Johan Mieses.

The Missions broke the game open with a four-run sixth inning and then added three more in the eighth, courtesy of Reyes' second homerun of the night.

San Antonio improved to 30-21. It's the first time they've been nine games over .500 since the end of the 2013 season. They improved to 20-8 in May. It's the first time since August, 2011 that a Missions club has won as many as 20 games in a calendar month. San Antonio owns the best record in Double-A in May.

Luis Urías and Nick Torres both added a pair of hits each as part of the attack.
