Cubs Resilient in 5-4 Win Over Fort Wayne
The South Bend Cubs launched their 2111 campaign with a victory over the Fort Wayne TinCaps at Four Winds Field at Coveleski Stadium. South Bend left fielder Mike McGinley was instrumental in the 5-4 win. He went 3-4 with 3 singles. He scored 2 runs. South Bend reliever Fernando Ramos picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Robbie Castro absorbed the loss.

The game was decided with no one out in the bottom of the ninth. With South Bend trailing 4-3, Phil Stirling hit a fastball from Robbie Castro to right for a 2-run single. Just like that, the Cubs had a walk-off win.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said South Bend manager Ray Behm.
