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

Casta\u00f1on Homers, But ‘Caps Fall in Front of Second Consecutive Sellout Crowd<\/strong>
\nBy Derek Decker<\/em><\/p>\n

Fort Wayne, Indiana (June 18, 2023) \u2013 TinCaps third baseman Marcos Casta\u00f1on belted a two-run homer as part of a career-high four-hit night, starting pitcher Victor Lizarraga (No. 7 Padres prospect) spun strong innings and recorded a season-high six strikeouts, but the Dayton Dragons (Cincinnati Reds affiliate) ousted Fort Wayne, 5-2, in front of a sellout crowd of 7,390 on a gorgeous Saturday night at Parkview Field. This marked the second sellout in as many nights at Parkview Field, and the fifth so far this year. <\/p>\n

Casta\u00f1on ripped a trio of singles in addition to his seventh bomb of the year.<\/p>\n

Center fielder Jakob Marsee (No. 23 Padres prospect) extended his on-base streak to 13 games, going 1-for-2 with two walks. He ranks second in the Midwest League with 47 walks this season.<\/p>\n

Left fielder Justin Farmer finished the game 2-for-4 with a double. He\u2019s hitting nearly .300 over his last 33 games since early May, which is in the top 10 in the league during that stretch.<\/p>\n

Dayton struck first in the second inning with a solo homer by third baseman Austin Callahan. They added to that lead with a run in the sixth and three more in the seventh to go up 5-0.<\/p>\n

Casta\u00f1on got Fort Wayne on the board in the bottom of the seventh, blistering a hanging breaking pitch for a two-run home run to left-center, cutting the deficit to 5-2, but that would be the end of the scoring in Saturday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Caps struggled with runners in scoring position and went just 0-for-8 in the contest. They left 11 runners on base.<\/p>\n

Relief pitcher Henry Henry made his season debut for the TinCaps after being transferred from Double-A San Antonio yesterday. He tossed two shutout innings out of the bullpen. Henry previously pitched with the \u2018Caps in parts of the 2018 and 2019 seasons.<\/p>\n
