News release from the Fort Wayne TinCaps:<\/p>\n

Padres Pitcher Blake Snell Scheduled to Rehab at Parkview Field<\/strong>
\n2018 Cy Young Award Winner Scheduled to Appear Thursday for TinCaps<\/em><\/p>\n

Fort Wayne, Indiana (April 26, 2022) \u2014 San Diego Padres starting pitcher Blake Snell is scheduled to make a Major League rehab appearance for the High-A Fort Wayne TinCaps at Parkview Field on Thursday (7:05 p.m.) against the Dayton Dragons (Cincinnati Reds affiliate).<\/p>\n

The Padres placed Snell, the 2018 American League Cy Young Award winner and All-Star, on the 10-day injured list on April 15 (retroactive to April 11) with a left abductor strain. San Diego is currently on the road in Cincinnati, with upcoming trips to Pittsburgh and Cleveland.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is huge for our organization,\u201d said TinCaps President Mike Nutter. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to have been a partner with the Padres since 1999 and take great pride in having hosted dozens of players who\u2019ve developed into big leaguers, including Fernando Tatis Jr. This is a new opportunity for us to play a role in assisting Blake on his way back to health and rejoining the Padres as they contend for a World Series this season. We hope our fans will appreciate this extremely rare chance to watch one of the best in the world at their craft perform.\u201d<\/p>\n

This won\u2019t be Snell\u2019s first visit to Parkview Field. The 29-year-old left-hander from Seattle was selected by the Tampa Bay Rays with the 52nd overall pick in the 2011 MLB Draft. He spent the 2013 season with the Bowling Green Hot Rods, who at the time were in the Midwest League\u2019s East Division with the TinCaps. On May 15 that year, Snell dueled in Fort Wayne against another top southpaw prospect, Max Fried, who\u2019s now with the Atlanta Braves. (Click here to see that game\u2019s box score<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Snell made his MLB debut in April 2016 with the Rays. In 2018, he had the AL\u2019s lowest ERA at 1.89. He helped lead Tampa Bay to the World Series in 2020. The Padres traded for Snell in December 2020.<\/p>\n

Thursday\u2019s game is a special Tribute to the Indy 500, too, featuring a visit from Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles. Additionally, as a Thirsty Thursday\uf0d4 presented by Rudy\u2019s, domestic draft beers will be on sale for $2 along with other drink specials.<\/p>\n

The \u2019Caps, who are 10-5 to begin the season, are hosting Dayton Tuesday through Sunday. Tickets can be purchased at TinCapsTickets.com, by calling 260-482-6400, and at the Parkview Field Ticket Office. <\/p>\n
