From the TinCaps’ newsletter:

The Fort Wayne TinCaps individual game tickets will be available for purchase starting at 10:00am EST on Tuesday, February 24th. The TinCaps offer three options when purchasing tickets for the 2009 season.
PURCHASE TICKETS ONLINE

The TinCaps have partnered with Streamline Ticketing, a Nashville, Tennessee-based technology firm, to create a customer-friendly online ticket purchasing experience.

Once fans have selected their desired seats, the third and final step will be completing the transaction by selecting their preferred payment option. An additional feature allows fans to print their tickets at home. Save time and select your specific seats, all from the comfort of your computer. The TinCaps online ticketing system will go live at TinCaps.com at 10:00am EST on Tuesday, February 24th.
