\nBy David Kenyon<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(June 5, 2016) – The TinCaps used a three-run eighth inning to claim a 4-1 win and a series victory against the Dayton Dragons on Sunday afternoon at Parkview Field.<\/p>\n

Dayton (14-43) issued three straight walks to Ty France, Kodie Tidwell and Peter Van Gansen in the eighth frame that proved costly.<\/p>\n

Michael Gettys started the scoring with an RBI single, then Austin Allen and Carlos Belen followed with consecutive sacrifice flies for Fort Wayne (31-26), which won five of six during the homestand.<\/p>\n

It was the 15th come-from-behind win of the season.<\/p>\n

Thomas Dorminy pitched six strong innings, ceding just one run while striking out six.<\/p>\n

Jerry Keel (W, 3-4) earned the victory after holding the Dragons without a hit in two frames. Gerardo Reyes (S, 2) picked up the save, capping the TinCaps win with a strikeout.<\/p>\n

Brad Zunica went 2-for-3 and was also hit by a pitch, adding an RBI single that plated Allen in the bottom of the fourth. Gettys notched his fifth three-hit outing of the season.<\/p>\n

Dayton reliever Ariel Hernandez (L, 0-1) surrendered three runs in his 1.1 innings. Shane Mardirosian managed an RBI groundout for the Dragons’ lone tally during the fourth.<\/p>\n

Fort Wayne has now taken or split eight of nine series at Parkview Field in 2016.<\/p>\n
