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

Williams-Sutton Has Two-Run Scoring Hits, but Fort Wayne Falls<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bowling Green, Kentucky (July 25, 2019) \u2013 Despite a pair of run-scoring hits for right fielder Dwanya Williams-Sutton, the TinCaps lost to the Bowling Green Hot Rods (Tampa Bay Rays affiliate), 9-3, on Thursday night at Bowling Green Ballpark.<\/p>\n

The Eastern Division-leading Hot Rods (21-11, 60-42) opened the scoring in the bottom of the first as Osmy Gregorio drew a one-out walk and Jonathan Aranda then doubled him in.<\/p>\n

The TinCaps (11-21, 44-56) tied the game, 1-1, in the bottom of the second. In a classic get \u2018em on-get \u2018em over-get \u2018em in scenario, second baseman Justin Lopez had a leadoff single. He advanced to second on a wild pitch, moved to third base on a Luke Becker groundout to first, and scored on an Ethan Skender groundout to second.<\/p>\n

But Bowling Green scored four in the home second and four more in the fifth to pull away.<\/p>\n

Fort Wayne\u2019s offense was mostly quiet, outside of Williams-Sutton who had an RBI double in the third and an RBI single in the eighth. Otherwise, center fielder Jawuan Harris also extended his hitting streak to nine games with a pair of singles. He also stole his 24th and 25th bases of the season. He ranks third in the Midwest League in that category. Meanwhile, Williams-Sutton doesn\u2019t quite qualify as an official league leader due to missing a few weeks in June with a sprained left wrist, but if he did, he would lead the MWL in on-base percentage at .404.<\/p>\n

In relief, Adrian Martinez tossed two perfect innings, lowering his July ERA to 1.38 in 13 innings. Edwuin Bencomo recorded three strikeouts in a scoreless eighth, his third consecutive scoreless outing. <\/p>\n
