Jason Repko can hit.

In the 12th inning Sunday, Repko showed he can run, too.

Repko singled, stole second and scored on Chin-Lung Hu's one-out single to left, as Albuquerque rallied for a 5-4 victory over Omaha in Pacific Coast League baseball at Isotopes Park.

The Isotopes forced extra innings with a single run in the bottom of the ninth.

Henry Bonilla, the sixth Albuquerque pitcher to take the mound, earned the victory. Bonilla (3-5) pitched a perfect inning, striking out one.

Greg Atencio, who assumed the pitching duties for the Royals with one out in the bottom of the 10th, suffered the loss. Atencio (2-7) surrendered two hits and one run in two innings. He struck out three.

Omaha and Albuquerque exchanged leads.

The Royals took a 2-0 head start after four innings. The Isotopes passed them with a two-run fifth and a single run in the seventh. Omaha answered with back-to-back home runs from Scott Thorman and Kila Ka'aihus in the eighth.

It was the second home run of the game for Ka'aihus, who homered in the fourth.

Repko finished with three of the Isotopes' 14 hits.

Albuquerque takes today off before starting a four-game home stand with Nashville on Tuesday.
