St. Paul forgot to bring their bats Saturday night, and Omaha starter Henry Williams was in no mood to help the Saints find them.
Despite entering the night with a 7.03 ERA, Williams dominated the visitors’ lineup, allowing St. Paul just three hits and one walk, striking out five over six shutout innings as the Saints fell to the Storm Chasers 4-0.
The Saints managed just four singles overall against Williams and two relievers. Hendry Mendez was the only St. Paul batter to reach base twice, recording the team’s lone walk to go with his base hit.
Matt Bowman (2-4, 4.81 ERA), who relieved Saints starter Ricky Castro to start the fourth, was saddled with the loss after giving up the game’s first run on a sacrifice fly in the first of his two innings of work. He allowed three hits and with the one earned run.
With the win, Omaha (51-55) took a 3-2 series lead in their six-game set with St. Paul (60-46). The Saints look to even the series in Sunday’s finale, with first pitch scheduled for 5:05 p.m. Trent Baker (3-3, 5.89) take to the hill for the guests, while the Storm Chasers have yet to announce a starter to oppose him.
