TinCaps Crush Captains, 9-3<\/strong>
\nFrance, Tidwell Have Big Days with Homers<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

EASTLAKE, Ohio (May 29, 2016) – The TinCaps thumped the Lake County Captains, 9-3, on Sunday afternoon at Classic Park. Fort Wayne had a 13-hit offensive attack that included a pair of home runs.<\/p>\n

Fort Wayne (26-24) first baseman Ty France started the scoring with a solo home run to lead off the second against left-hander Sam Hentges (L, 1-4). For the 21-year-old France, it was his third blast of the season, and his first of four hits and four RBIs on the day.<\/p>\n

Left fielder Kodie Tidwell extended the TinCaps’ lead to 2-0 in the third inning with a triple that scored right fielder Jhonatan Pe\u00c3\u00b1a. Tidwell also extended his hitting streak to a career-long nine games, while Pe\u00c3\u00b1a finished with his second three-hit game of the season. A France RBI single made it 3-0 and a passed ball brought in second baseman Tyler Moore, who had walked after Tidwell’s triple. Still in the third, third baseman Carlos Belen contributed a run-scoring single to swell the lead to 5-0.<\/p>\n

In the fourth, Tidwell tagged his first homer as a TinCap \u00e2\u20ac\u201d a two-run shot with Pe\u00c3\u00b1a on first \u00e2\u20ac\u201d to balloon the advantage to 7-0. Not done yet, France added a two-run single to bring home Moore, who was on after a walk, and center fielder Michael Gettys, who had singled. Gettys stretched his on-base streak to 13 games.<\/p>\n

Lake County (28-22) futilely scored twice in the home fourth and put up one for naught in the ninth.<\/p>\n

TinCaps starter Enyel De Los Santos (W, 3-1) struck out four over across five innings. Nick Monroe tossed two scoreless frames of relief. Gerardo Reyes finished the final two innings.<\/p>\n

Hentges was yanked with one out in the fourth and charged with all of the Fort Wayne runs.<\/p>\n

The TinCaps are 3-3 on their week-long road trip which ends Monday. Fort Wayne has taken two of the first three in this series.<\/p>\n
