Fort Wayne & West Michigan Postponed by Rain Again
April 20, 2019 - Midwest League (MWL1)
Fort Wayne TinCaps News Release
FORT WAYNE, Ind. - On Saturday afternoon, for the second time in three days, the Fort Wayne TinCaps and the West Michigan Whitecaps (Detroit Tigers affiliate) had their scheduled game at Parkview Field postponed by rain.
The Midwest League's 140-game schedule is divided into two 70-game halves. Because West Michigan isn't scheduled to return to Fort Wayne for the remainder of the first half of the season, Saturday's postponed game will be made up when the TinCaps visit the Whitecaps at Fifth Third Ballpark in Comstock Park, Mich., from May 28-30. (The exact date for when a doubleheader will be played that series has yet to be determined by the Whitecaps. The TinCaps will wind up being the "home" team when the game is made up.)
Fans with tickets to Saturday's rained out game may redeem their tickets for any remaining 2019 regular season game at Parkview Field. The tickets must be exchanged at the Parkview Field Ticket Office for tickets of equal or lesser value, with the ability to upgrade, based on availability. There are no full or partial cash refunds.

All 16 teams in the Midwest League have Easter Sunday off.
The TinCaps begin a three-game series at home against the Bowling Green Hot Rods on Monday with a US Foods Family Feast Night, featuring $1 food items. Click here for the full Homestand Highlights presented by Lancia Homes.
