Date, Time & Venue
Sunday, June 14, 2026 12:05 p.m. CDT (10:35 p.m. IST) Werner Park, Papillion, Nebraska
Injury Updates & Team News
The Aviators have leaned on MLB rehab help. Aaron Civale delivered a strong outing earlier in the series and helped stabilize the rotation. Omaha welcomed Kris Bubic for a rehab start earlier in the homestand. No major long-term injuries dominate either side, though both clubs continue to manage pitching workloads in the heat of June.
Probable Pitchers
- Omaha Storm Chasers: RHP Ryan Ramsey
- Las Vegas Aviators: TBD (lineup and starter expected closer to first pitch; the 38-26 club has leaned on a mix of rehab arms and depth pieces)
Ramsey gets the ball in a spot where Omaha needs to even the series tone before the Aviators head out of town.

Weather & Ballpark Report
Expect classic early-summer Nebraska conditions: highs in the low-to-mid 80s°F (around 27-29°C) with partly cloudy skies and light winds. Werner Park plays fair — enough carry for power hitters when the air is dry, but not a pure launching pad. The sun will be high for the day game, so outfielders will battle glare early. No heavy weather expected to delay first pitch.
Key Player Battles
Watch the Aviators’ middle of the order against Ramsey’s stuff. Las Vegas has shown the ability to string together rallies even against lefties and righties alike. On the other side, Omaha’s hitters will look to exploit any early-count mistakes from the Aviators’ starter. The battle between the Aviators’ athletic outfield defense and Omaha’s aggressive baserunning could swing close innings.
Head-to-Head & Records
This marks the first trip to Papillion for the Aviators since 2019. The current series has already produced high-scoring affairs and tight pitching duels. Las Vegas holds the overall edge in 2026 play between the clubs thanks to their stronger roster depth and record.

Fantasy Team Tips
For deeper fantasy baseball leagues that track Triple-A:
- Aviators bats have shown consistent extra-base power this series — monitor any hot hitters for waiver adds or prospect stashes.
- Omaha arms in the bullpen have been tested; a strong Ramsey outing could boost his stock for future call-up watch lists.
- Keep an eye on any position players getting consistent at-bats in the heart of the order. Minor league playing time trends often signal MLB opportunity windows later in the summer.
Daily fantasy players should target the higher-upside Aviators lineup while watching for late lineup changes.
Match Prediction
The Las Vegas Aviators enter as slight favorites. Their 38-26 record, offensive depth, and recent series success give them the edge even on the road. Omaha will have the home crowd and the motivation of a series finale, but the Chasers’ 29-36 mark shows the holes that have followed them most of the season.
Projected Outcome: Aviators 6, Storm Chasers 4 — Las Vegas closes the set with another solid road win and heads home feeling good about their playoff positioning.
The energy at Werner Park on a Sunday afternoon in June never disappoints. Whether you’re in the stands or watching from halfway around the world at 10:35 p.m. IST, this one should deliver the kind of competitive baseball that makes the minor leagues special.
