It was scoreless until the sixth, when an error put Buffalo up 1-0.  In the seventh, however, Emmanuel Rodriguez hit a two-run homer to give St. Paul all the runs they would need.  It was his second homer of the season.  It was the pitching that carried the day.  Zebby Matthews pitched 5.1 innings, giving up an unearned run on five hits and no walks and striking out four.  Alex Speas pitched two shutout innings, giving up three hits and a walk.  Tyler Beede pitched a perfect inning, striking out one.
