Mary Moore, who once played against the Daisies with the Springfield Sallies and the Battle Creek Belles from 1950-52, was recognized on the field. Meanwhile, actress Megan Cavanagh, who played the role of Marla Hooch in A League of Their Own, was also a special guest.<\/p>\n<p>As for the game, the Midwest League-leading Whitecaps (25-13) went ahead 4-0 with a run in the fourth, two in the fifth, and an insurance tally in the sixth. Top Tigers prospect Max Clark, the center fielder from Franklin, Ind., drove in both in the fifth with a single.<\/p>\n<p>The TinCaps (20-18) scored their lone run in the ninth as left fielder Jack Costello singled in shortstop Brandon Butterworth, who had doubled. Fort Wayne brought the tying run to the plate, but ultimately fell short.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/gameday\/whitecaps-vs-tincaps\/2025\/05\/17\/785197\/final\/box\" target=\"_blank\">Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Next Game<\/strong>: Sunday, May 18 vs. West Michigan (1:05 p.m.)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>TinCaps Probable Starter<\/strong>: RHP Eric Yost<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whitecaps Probable Starter<\/strong>: RHP Sawyer Gipson-Long (MLB rehab)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Watch<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballysports.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bally Sports Live app<\/a> (free) | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/live-stream-games\/subscribe\" target=\"_blank\">MiLB.TV<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/live-stream-games\/subscribe?affiliateId=MLBTVREDIRECT\" target=\"_blank\">MLB.TV<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Listen<\/strong>: 1380 The Fan &#038; 100.9 FM | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/fort-wayne\" target=\"_blank\">TinCaps.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/fort-wayne\/tickets\" target=\"_blank\">Tickets<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/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;.
