The team is offering fans a unique and exclusive opportunity to purchase a life-size cardboard cutout that will be placed in the front row at Parkview Field. Only a limited number of cutouts will be available while supplies last.<\/p>\n<p>These front row seats around the dugouts and bullpens have been deemed a \u201cbuffer zone\u201d by Major League Baseball for fan and player safety; thus, real-life fans will be seated elsewhere around the ballpark. The TinCaps Cutouts offer is available for $30.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to be awesome to have real-life fans back at Parkview Field for Opening Day on May 4,\u201d said TinCaps President Mike Nutter. \u201cAnd we\u2019re still looking forward to when we\u2019re able to have a fully sold-out ballpark down the road. But for now, this is a fun chance for fans to be seen in the front row at all of our home games that are broadcast on TV and streamed online. We\u2019ve already had some fans with creative ideas to get cutouts for their pet dog, grandparent, or another loved one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans can upload their photo at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/fort-wayne\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TinCaps.com<\/a>. The team will post photos of the cutouts on social media, too, for fans to see. After the \u201cbuffer zone\u201d physical distancing limit is lifted, fans will be invited to the ballpark to take their life-size cutout home as a keepsake souvenir.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for the 2021 season are on sale now at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tincapstickets.com\/web\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TinCapsTickets.com<\/a>, by calling 260-482-6400, and at the Parkview Field Ticket Office. <\/p>\n<p>The TinCaps begin their 120-game High-A Central season on May 4 (7:05 p.m.) against the West Michigan Whitecaps (Detroit Tigers affiliate). That kicks off a special six-game Opening Week homestand with all games scheduled against West Michigan. The TinCaps\u2019 60-game home schedule runs through September 12.<\/p>\n<p>TinCaps home games will air on Comcast Network 81 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/live-stream-games\/subscribe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MiLB.TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Note<\/strong>: Unlike the team\u2019s previous \u201cFirst in Line\u201d fan initiative, this TinCaps Cutouts offer does not include an undated ticket to a game or a donation to a local non-profit<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/category\/sports\/fort-wayne-tincaps-baseball\/\">Read more posts from the TinCaps<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/wells\/81643.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Judi Wire, WCBA President, displays one of the &quot;Tin Caps&quot;.
