TinCaps SS Dunn Suspended 3 Games Saturday, August 8th , 2026 The Fort Wayne TinCaps were not very happy with the home plate umpire in today's loss to Quad Cities at TinCaps Grounds. One in particular -- Troy Dunn. Upon being called out on strikes, the TinCaps shortstop gave the ump quite an earful. For that, the man in blue gave him the thumb and sent him to an early shower. But the disgruntled Dunn lingered on the field for another five minutes, berating the umpire. Finally his manager got him off the field and into the clubhouse. But it got worse after the game, when Dunn told reporters, "He was awful out there. They played 'Three Blind Mice' for him." For his escapades and after-the-game oration, the league office suspended Dunn for 3 games. Dunn is hitting .182 so far this season with 2 RBIs and 3 runs scored. He has 6 hits including 1 home run, 1 walk and .206 OBP. |
