Fort Wayne, Indiana (May 22, 2025) \u2013 For five straight games the TinCaps have set or tied their season high in runs, and that continued with a 12-5 victory against the Lansing Lugnuts (Oakland A’s affiliate) at Parkview Field on Wednesday night.

First baseman Griffin Doersching walked to load the bases and second baseman Nerwilian Cede\u00f1o knocked in Vilar to tie the game, 1-1. Right fielder Kai Murphy walked to take a 2-1 lead, and Ethan Salas (No.1 Padres prospect) smacked a two-run single to improve the lead to 4-1. The exclamation point on the biggest inning of the season was left fielder Tyler Robertson blasting a three-run home run to left field.<\/p>\n

In the sixth inning, the scoring continued for the ‘Caps. Fort Wayne plated five runs, headlined by a Robertson two-run double, and a Vilar RBI single.
\nThroughout the TinCaps’ seven-game win streak, the offense has scored a total of 58 runs \u2013 the most of any High-A team in that span. The lineup has a .279 batting average and an .839 OPS during the win streak.<\/p>\n

On the mound, starter Jagger Haynes (No. 18 Padres prospect) put up his best outing of the season. The lefty went a career-high seven innings and only allowed one run while striking out five \u2013 to match a career best \u2013 as he earned the first win of his Minor League Baseball career.<\/p>\n
