Fort Wayne TinCaps (61-73) Won 9-4
The TinCaps won 9-4 over the South Bend Cubs on Thursday. 18-year-old Jesus Gonzalez started the game and went five innings in his Midwest League debut. The left-handed pitcher allowed only two hits and a walk resulting in one earned run. He has a 1.80 ERA in his one start for the TinCaps. Gonzalez was 4-3 with a 5.20 ERA pitching for the AZL Padres this summer. Franklin Van Gurp allowed two earned runs in three innings pitched. He struck out three and has a 3.29 ERA so far this year. Dwanya Williams-Sutton smacked two homers in the win as the 22-year-old now has eight on the season to go with a .777 OPS. The power is in his bat and is slowly coming along. Williams-Sutton is an interesting prospect with a decent ceiling. 2019 draft pick Chris Givin continues to hit well going 2-for-4 on Thursday. He is hitting .309 this season overall between Fort Wayne and the AZL.
Dwanya Williams-Sutton- (2-4) 2 HRs, 2 Runs, 4 RBIs, BB

Impressive @TinCaps debut for 18 year-old Jesus Gonzalez. FB 90-92 with an advanced breaking ball. Definitely an arm to watch in the future. @EVT_News pic.twitter.com/g4SM0X32uy
