Whitecaps Rack Up 5-2 Win Versus Fort Wayne
The West Michigan Whitecaps dealt the Fort Wayne TinCaps a 5-2 loss at Parkview Field. Ryan Knee, who leads the MID in total bases with 203, was the star on offense. He was 3-3 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs. Fernando Diaz got the win, improving to 3-1. He pitched 5 innings, giving up 5 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 6. The save went to Willie Ochoa, number 2 for him.

Hayden Bruce had a big solo home run for the Whitecaps in the top of the third inning. With West Michigan leading 2-1 and the bases empty, he sized up a changeup from 23-year old right-handed pitcher Eddie Heber and punished it. The result was his 4th home run of the season, which put the Whitecaps on top, 3-1.

Said losing manager Jeremy Rodal: "Obviously, we wished for a better outcome."

At 63-45, the Whitecaps are currently third in the Eastern Division.
