Red-Hot South Bend Cubs Sweep Doubleheader, Extend Win Streak to Six The South Bend Cubs stayed scorching hot on Saturday, sweeping a road doubleheader against the Fort Wayne TinCaps with gritty, clutch performances to stretch their winning streak to six games—and five straight at Parkview Field this series. The Cubs took Game 1 by a score of 3–1 and followed it with a dominant 4–0 victory in Game 2. In the opener, the Cubs plated a run on a bases-loaded balk in the 5th, then broke a 1–1 tie in the top of the 7th. Carter Trice delivered a soft but perfectly placed fly ball single to center field, scoring Reginald Preciado and Drew Bowser. Starter Ryan Gallagher shined again, tossing 5.2 sharp innings, allowing just one run while striking out eight—his third consecutive strong outing. Joe Nahas slammed the door with a lockdown relief appearance. Game 2 belonged to South Bend’s starter, who pitched a brilliant, complete game shutout, scattering just four hits and fanning five. The offense ignited in the 3rd inning as Andy Garriola ripped a bases-clearing double. Brian Kalmer added an RBI double in the 4th to cap the scoring. The Cubs look to finish the series sweep Sunday afternoon. Pregame at 12:45, first pitch at 1:05 p.m. on Sports Radio WSBT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cubs Rally in 9th to Win 11–9 in Thriller over TinCaps In the top of the 9th, trailing by one, Carter Trice launched a two-run homer—his 7th of the season—to give the South Bend Cubs a 10–9 lead over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. Felix Stevens, on a rehab assignment, followed with a solo blast to center, capping a thrilling three-run rally and securing an 11–9 Cubs victory—their second straight 11-run performance. South Bend out-hit Fort Wayne 14–12 in the back-and-forth slugfest. Catcher Ariel Armas had a standout game, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, four RBIs, and a stolen base. Edward Alvarez added three hits and two RBIs, while Stevens chipped in with two hits of his own. The Cubs offense struck in bunches, scoring four in the 3rd, and one run each in the 4th and 5th. They plated two more in the 6th before their ninth-inning heroics. Despite giving up nine runs in the first five innings, South Bend’s bullpen dominated late. Chase Watkins threw 2.1 scoreless innings, and Johzan Oquendo closed the door with five strikeouts in two hitless innings to earn the win. An electric, comeback-filled win in this battle of Indiana’s minor league rivals. Next Game: Wednesday at 6:45 PM on Sports Radio WSBT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gallagher’s Pitching Gem Leads South Bend Cubs to 5–0 Shutout Over TinCaps It was a picture-perfect day at Four Winds Field, and the South Bend Cubs made sure the fans went home happy with a commanding 5–0 victory over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. Behind dominant pitching, timely hitting, and crisp defense, South Bend improved their standing with one of their most complete performances of the season. The story of the day was Ryan Gallagher, who delivered a masterclass on the mound. The right-hander pitched six innings of no-hit baseball, racking up eight strikeouts while walking just one. Gallagher was in total control from the first pitch, keeping TinCaps hitters off balance with a mix of fastballs, breaking balls, and pinpoint command. His performance set the tone early and gave the Cubs a strong foundation. After Gallagher’s dominant outing, the Cubs bullpen kept the momentum going. Luis Rujano took over in the seventh and kept the no-hitter alive for one more inning before the TinCaps finally broke through with a hit in the eighth. Sam Thoresen came in to close things out in the ninth, sealing the combined shutout and allowing just the third Fort Wayne hit of the day. While the pitching stole the headlines, the offense gave the arms plenty of breathing room early. The Cubs came out swinging in the bottom of the first inning, plating four runs to take immediate control. Catcher Miguel Pabón was at the heart of the rally, delivering two RBI singles in the inning as the Cubs batted around. Pabón also had a strong day behind the plate, managing the pitching staff with poise and precision. South Bend tacked on another run later in the game, but with the way the pitching staff performed, it was more than enough. The win showcased what the Cubs are capable of when everything clicks — elite pitching, timely hitting, and sharp fielding all coming together. With the shutout win, the Cubs continue to build momentum as they progress through the season. The hometown crowd was treated to sunshine, strikeouts, and a statement win.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

South Bend Cubs Fall to TinCaps 8–4; Kohl Franklin Makes Rehab Start The South Bend Cubs dropped Tuesday’s day game to the Fort Wayne TinCaps, 8–4, in front of a packed crowd of 6,000 fans at Four Winds Field on Education Day. The afternoon featured the return of right-hander Kohl Franklin, making his first live appearance since the 2024 season. Franklin, on a rehab assignment, pitched two innings and showed some early-season rust, allowing three runs on four hits while walking three and striking out one. Johzan Oquendo followed with an inning of relief, giving up one run on two hits. The Cubs’ bullpen got a major lift from Evan Aschenbeck, who tossed 4.1 innings of strong relief. The lefty allowed just one run and helped stabilize the game while conserving arms for the series ahead. On the offensive side, Edgar Alvarez put the Cubs on the board in the bottom of the 8th with a solo home run, trimming the TinCaps’ lead to 8–2. The Cubs mounted a late rally in the 9th, loading the bases and scoring two runs—one on catcher’s interference and another on a bases-loaded walk. But Fort Wayne reliever Xavier Woods struck out the final two batters to seal the win for the TinCaps.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Final Score: Cedar Rapids Kernels 9, South Bend Cubs 1 The South Bend Cubs dropped the series finale to the Cedar Rapids Kernels, closing out a difficult road trip with a 9–1 loss. The defeat drops the Cubs to 1–13 on the road this season and gives the Kernels five wins in the six-game set. South Bend struck first with a Carter Trice RBI single in the top of the first. Trice also stood out defensively, making key plays in center field during the third and fourth innings to momentarily keep the game close. Trice and Reginald Preciado each recorded two hits in the game. Starter Kenten Egbert gave up back-to-back singles before being pulled for Joe Nahas in the fifth. That inning unraveled quickly, as the Kernels sent eight batters to the plate and scored five runs on four singles to take control. Cedar Rapids later added two more runs in the bottom of the eighth, finishing with 11 hits to South Bend’s 9. Reliever Luis Rujano provided a bright spot out of the bullpen, throwing 1.2 innings and striking out three. The Cubs had a chance to rally in the eighth with the bases loaded but couldn’t push across another run. South Bend returns home to Four Winds Field next week for a six-game homestand against the Fort Wayne TinCaps, hoping to reverse their road struggles and get back on trackSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
