SETTLING IN: TinCaps starting pitcher Isaiah Lowe is coming off two of his best three performances of the season. Last week at Dayton, Lowe went a season-long six innings of work, turning in his second quality start of the season. The week before against South Bend, Lowe retired each of the first 10 batters he faced. Going five innings, Lowe struck out a season-high six, giving up one run. His best outing of the year came on May 3 against Dayton. The No. 10 Padres prospect struck out five in five scoreless, one-hit innings, helping the 'Caps shut out the Dragons.

MENDEZ MAGIC: Eight outings into his time with Fort Wayne, Miguel Mendez continues to showcase his plus-stuff on the mound. Across two levels, Mendez has struck out 28.7% (60-209) of the batters he's faced. Since his debut on May 9, Mendez's 2.17 ERA (9 ER) is 4th in the MWL amongst arms with at least 25 innings pitched, while his 42 strikeouts are 5th. The flamethrower has hit 100 mph nine times this season and on June 6 went a career-long six innings, striking out seven and outdueling Marlins top prospect Thomas White. On May 23, the 22-year-old tied a career-high with nine strikeouts in 4 â..." innings. In his first start with the 'Caps, Mendez struck out seven South Bend Cubs and from the second to fifth innings, retired nine in a row, at one point striking out five straight.

NOBODY WALKS LIKE ROSMAN: In the last month, TinCaps third baseman Rosman Verdugo is tied for the lead in all of affiliated baseball (MLB and MiLB) in walks. The No. 24 Padres prospect has 29 free passes in the last 24 games. Across the stretch, he has walked 27.6% of the time. Verdugo has walked in six of his last eight games with 11 walks in those games. The 20-year-old is now 5th in the Midwest League with 44 walks, tied for 3rd with 10 home runs, tied for 4th with 26 extra-base hits, and 15th in BB% (16.2%).

COMEBACK 'CAPS: Scoring seven unanswered runs Thursday and walking off the series opener, the TinCaps have come from behind in 16 of 35 wins this season. 10 of those came in their first 13 wins. They have come back from as large as seven runs.

‚¬â€¹ ‚¬â€¹ THROUGH SIX INNINGS: The Fort Wayne TinCaps are 29-1 this season when leading after six innings. After starting off a perfect 24-0, the 'Caps fell for the first time on Tuesday, June 10, against the South Bend Cubs. The run has been helped out by five relievers with sub-3.00 ERAs.

WALKING INTO HISTORY: On Tuesday, the TinCaps walked a franchise-record 16 times. It breaks an eight-year record dating back to 2017. On Aug. 8, 2017, the 'Caps walked 14 times, also against the Great Lakes Loons in a 4-1, 10-inning win on the road. Current Padre Fernando Tatis Jr. tied the single-game record with four at the top of the order. The 16 free passes were also a franchise-worst for Great Lakes.
