Brent Headrick and Randy Dobnak combined to give up just one run on four hits and the St. Paul Saints defeated the Iowa Cubs 2-1 on Wednesday night at CHS Field.

Headrick started for the Saints and pitched three scoreless innings, allowing two hits and one walk and striking out four.

Dobnak entered in the fourth and pitched the final six innings, allowing one run on two hits with one walk and six strikeouts.

DaShawn Keirsey Jr. had a run-scoring double for the Saints in the third inning, and Iowa tied the game on Chase Strumpf’s home run off Dobnak in the fifth.

In the seventh, the Saints manufactured the eventual winning run. Jair Camargo drew a one-out walk, went to second on a passed ball by catcher Moises Ballesteros and scored on Carson McCusker’s single to right field.

Byron Buxton started in center field for the Saints and struck out in both of his at-bats. After his second strikeout to end the third inning, he was ejected by home place umpire Willie Traynor.
