Game recap from the Fort Wayne TinCaps:<\/p>\n

Same Story as ‘Caps Lose 1-Run Game<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dayton, Ohio (July 25, 2024) \u2013 Out of Minor League Baseball’s 120 teams, only three have suffered more one-run losses than the TinCaps this season. Fort Wayne added to its misery on Thursday night at Day Air Ballpark with a 4-3 setback against the Dayton Dragons (Reds affiliate). <\/p>\n

The score was tied in the bottom of the eighth inning when a pair of ‘Caps errors led to an unearned run scoring. <\/p>\n

That proved to be the difference as the TinCaps went 2-for-9 with runners in scoring position and left eight runners on base. <\/p>\n

Fort Wayne (9-18, 37-56) scored all of its runs in the third after there were two outs and no one on base. Second baseman Nik McClaughry started a chain of four consecutive singles, followed by center fielder Homer Bush Jr. (No. 8 Padres prospect), left fielder Nick Vogt, and first baseman Romeo Sanabria.<\/p>\n

Dayton (17-10, 51-42) though had taken a 2-0 lead in the first with a pair of two-out runs. The Dragons then tied the game in the home third with an unearned run. <\/p>\n

‘Caps starter Jagger Haynes (No. 18 Padres prospect) struck out nine across five innings with only two earned runs allowed. <\/p>\n

Bush, Vogt, and right fielder Joshua Mears all had two hits. <\/p>\n

Only Double-A Reading (Phillies), Triple-A Indianapolis, and Single-A Myrtle Beach have dropped more one-run games than the TinCaps this year. Fort Wayne is 12-19 in one-run games, having now lost by a run back-to-back nights here. <\/p>\n
