Fort Wayne, Indiana (February 27, 2026) \u2013 Parkview Field, the home of the Fort Wayne TinCaps, will once again host 12 high school and college baseball games, featuring 24 local teams, this April and May as a part of the annual Parkview Sports Medicine Baseball Classic. Matchups will feature rival teams from around Northeast Indiana and Northwest Ohio. The action will take place while the TinCaps are on the road. See the full schedule below.<\/p>\n

“Parkview Sports Medicine is proud to continue to partner with the TinCaps, supporting our area schools and offer student-athletes an opportunity to compete at a world-class facility like Parkview Field,\u201d said Candice Dunkin, Director of Sports Medicine at Parkview Health. \u201cThese are memories these student-athletes and families remember forever, and we are pleased to partner with the TinCaps to make these moments happen.”<\/p>\n

Thanks to Parkview Sports Medicine\u2019s sponsorship, the games are taking place at no cost to the participating schools. As in the past, the student-athletes will receive professional treatment at Parkview Field, like having their headshots displayed on the video board.<\/p>\n

\u201cParkview Field is more than TinCaps baseball,\u201d said TinCaps President Mike Nutter. \u201cThe ballpark hosts special events year-round, and we appreciate Parkview Sports Medicine for helping us make the PSM Baseball Classic an annual staple for our community. The high school baseball talent in Northeast Indiana and Northwest Ohio continues to rise, and we\u2019re happy to help put a spotlight on these phenomenal student-athletes, coaches, and schools. And who knows when we may see some of these kids back here on their way to the big leagues in Minor League Baseball playing for or against the \u2019Caps.\u201d<\/p>\n

Several PSM Baseball Classic alumni have gone on to play professionally, including Heritage\u2019s Andrew Saalfrank, who went on to pitch in the World Series with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2023. One local product, Josh VanMeter, who grew up in Ossian and played for the TinCaps in 2014 and \u201915 on his way to Major League Baseball, helped launch the PSM Baseball Academy last year, a new premier baseball training program with upcoming camps, private lessons, and group programs.
