Matt Wallner’s RBI single completed a two-run, ninth-inning rally as the Saints walked off Omaha, 6-5, on Friday at CHS Field.
It was the Saints’ first victory in a game they trailed after eight innings (1-27).
Alan Roden tied the score 5-5 with a solo home run and Gabby Gonzalez followed with a double. With Henry Genth pinch-running, Wallner looped a single into right-center to plate the winning run.
Roden, who recently returned from a long injured list stint because of a torn labrum, was 3 for 4 with a home run, RBI and run scored. He was acquired in the trade that sent Louis Varland to Toronto last July.
Former Twins pitcher Randy Dobnak, the Saints all-time winningest pitcher, started for the Storm Chasers and gave up a three-run home run to Aaron Sabato in the first inning. Sabato finished the night 2-4 with a home run, three RBIs and a run scored.
