Saints’ offense rolls over Omaha

The St. Paul Saints crushed a season-high four home runs Tuesday and pounded the Omaha Storm Chasers 13-7 in an International League game at CHS Field in front of 7,282.

Nearly everyone on the St. Paul offense got involved as seven of the nine collected a hit, eight of nine scored a run, and seven of nine drove in at least one run.

Three Saints hit solo home runs:  Yunio Severino in the fourth, Chris Williams in the sixth  and Alex Isola in the seventh.

The Storm Chasers hadn’t allowed more than 10 runs in any game this season, and they’d lost just one game by more than four runs.

Jordan Balazovic got the win in relief of Caleb Boushley, who gave up six runs in his five innings.

The series continues at 6:37 p.m. tonight, with Louis Varland on the mound for the Saints.
