Parkview Field's 400 Club & The Summit Featured
The TinCaps' Tuthill 400 Club, a group seating area located 400 feet from home plate, gives fans the opportunity to watch a game from behind the center-field batter's eye. This unique location was made possible via the installation of a 75-foot wall of shaded windows built directly atop the outfield wall. Three years later, the Class A San Diego affiliate unveiled The Summit. Located directly above the Tuthill 400 Club, the Summit is an outdoor group area that provides yet another unforgettable center-field vantage point.

TinCaps' Fans Miss Baseball Experience
For the first time in nearly three decades, there is no professional baseball in Fort Wayne.The city had minor league baseball every year since the Fort Wayne Wizards opened in the Midwest League in 1993. After the team moved downtown and rebranded as the TinCaps more than a decade ago, it became one of the best draws in MiLB.<br>This year, those fans who pack the stadium on warm summer nights – drinking cheap beer on Thirsty Thursdays, buying theme-night jerseys, posing for photos with mascot Johnny TinCap and staying for postgame fireworks shows – have missed the baseball experience.

Roberto Clemente Jr. Speaks at Erin’s House Fundraiser
Grief support organization Erin’s House tapped into a big name in baseball for their Common Bond fundraiser held at Parkview Field. Usually, Common Bond is a morning fundraiser for Erin’s House inside the Memorial Coliseum, but due to the pandemic, they moved the event outdoors at Parkview Field and held it in the evening. The move allowed them to better adjust to pandemic restrictions for large gatherings. Meyer said in a way, the change of venue was perfect because their keynote speaker was former professional baseball player and sports broadcaster Roberto Clemente Jr. Clemente lost his father, Pittsburgh Pirates right fielder Roberto Clemente, to a plane crash when he was seven years old. Clemente said he could have used a place like Erin’s House in the aftermath of his father’s death.
