TinCaps ReCap: Doubleheader split with South Bend<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fort Wayne, Indiana (April 14, 2022) – The Fort Wayne TinCaps split a doubleheader with the South Bend Cubs (Chicago Cubs affiliate) on Thursday night at Parkview Field. After falling in the front half, the ‘Caps won the nightcap, 6-2.<\/p>\n

South Bend (2-4) took the opener, 7-2. Fort Wayne (3-3) trailed, 7-0, until Australian shortstop Jarryd Dale hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth inning. The 21-year-old also homered Sunday in Dayton.<\/p>\n

But the TinCaps bounced back quickly in the finale. Fort Wayne plated a pair in the home first. That included a successful double-steal by left fielder Corey Rosier coming home from third base as center fielder Robert Hassell swiped second. Also in the frame, Dale ripped an RBI triple.<\/p>\n

In the third, the ‘Caps added three more. Designated hitter Joshua Mears mashed a run-scoring double, Hassell, who had singled, later scored on a wild pitch, and Dale delivered an RBI double.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, TinCaps starter Robert Gasser fired four impressive frames. The left-hander, who MLB.com<\/a> ranks as the No. 9 Padres prospect, struck out nine without a walk. South Bend benefited from a misplayed pop-up to score two in the fourth.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Fort Wayne responded with an insurance run in its half of the fourth. Mears drew a bases-loaded walk to make it 6-2.
\nHassell and Dale both had multi-hit performances in each game. Rosier reached base four times in the second game, drawing three walks, plus recording a single.<\/p>\n

Right-handed reliever Felix Minjarez followed Gasser with two scoreless innings, striking out five. Alek Jacob struck out the side in order to close it out.<\/p>\n
