The Reno Aces Ballpark is the home of the Reno Aces, Arizona Diamondbacks' AAA affiliate in the Pacific Coast League. There are two bronze plaques monumented at the ticket booth. One plaque commemorates the dedication of the ballpark, the other plaque is a memorial dedicated to a construction company who built the ballpark in record time, ensuring that the Reno Aces would be able to play in their home opener. Why the plaque is called a 'memorial' is beyond me.
