Louisville rallied for four runs in the eighth inning — three on Ronnie Dawson's homer — to edge the visiting St. Paul Saints 5-4 on Thursday night in International League baseball.
The loss spoiled a strong start by Cole Sands for the Saints (2-1). He gave up one hit in five scoreless innings and struck out seven. Derek Fisher had two RBI for the Saints, one on a solo homer, the other on a bases-loaded walk.
