TRANSACTIONS

SAINTS SENTINEL
Nasvhille 4, St. Paul 3 (F/10)
Box Score

Randy Dobnak took the ball after piggybacking for David Festa on Opening Day. Working 3 2/3 innings, Dobnak allowed three hits and just a single run. He struck out four, but had to work around traffic with four walks on the day.

It was St. Paul who raced out to an early lead. Jair Camargo knocked his first home run of the season, and the Saints owned a 1-0 lead in the 4th inning. Nashville evened things in the bottom half on a Yonny Hernandez single, and the early Saints lead was wiped away.

After a Brewer Hicklen 5th inning single made it a 2-1 lead for Nashville, Camargo came through again. His first double of the season plated DaShawn Keirsey Jr. and the scoreboard read a tie again. St. Paul jumped back ahead in the 7th inning with Will Holland reaching on an error. The booted ball allowed Anthony Prato to score and had the Saints in position to close it out.

The lead didn’t last as Owen Miller brought in a run on a sacrifice fly in the bottom half of the inning, and the sides couldn’t push anything else across in the 8th or 9th innings. A Nick Kahle single in the bottom of the 10th inning got the necessary run in, and the Sounds were able to walk it off.

Despite Nashville having 11 hits to generate their four runs, Gardenhire’s club got just four hits on the evening. Camargo came up with half of them on his own.
