SOUTH BEND, Ind. — The TinCaps ended their season-long 12-game road trip Sunday afternoon with a 5-1 loss to the South Bend Cubs at Four Winds Field. 

Fort Wayne (13-20) fell behind 2-0 after South Bend (20-13) scored a run in the second and another in the fourth. 

The ‘Caps made it a one-run game in the sixth when designated hitter Corey Rosier tripled and center fielder Robert Hassell III drove him in with a single. 

But the Cubs added to their lead in the bottom of the sixth as their catcher, Jake Washer, launched a three-run homer. 

Fort Wayne catcher Brandon Valenzuela, a top 20 Padres prospect, had a two-hit day, including a double off the wall in right field.

After a day off Monday, the TinCaps begin a 12-game homestand at Parkview Field on Tuesday night.
