Saints lose 15-12 in 11-inning slugfest despite nine-run inning
Orlando Arcia homered twice in one inning and Alan Roden hit two more, but Omaha answered with Abraham Toro’s cycle and won 15-12 in 11.
Orlando Arcia homered twice in the same inning, and St. Paul still walked off the field with a 15-12 loss in 11 innings. On June 21 at CHS Field, the Saints scored nine runs in one frame, hit five home runs overall and still could not finish off Omaha before 9,008 fans.
Alan Roden set the tone with a leadoff homer, then kept the pressure on by going 4-for-6 with two homers, two RBI and three runs scored. St. Paul trailed 5-1 before the fourth inning turned into a pileup, and the Saints flipped the game and surged ahead 10-5. That nine-run fourth was St. Paul’s highest-scoring inning of the 2026 season.
Omaha refused to go away, and Abraham Toro drove the comeback. Toro finished 5-for-6 with a cycle, six RBI and three runs scored, becoming only the sixth player in modern Storm Chasers history to hit for the cycle since 2005. His bases-clearing double came before Omaha kept stacking traffic until all nine starters had a hit. The Storm Chasers finished with 24 hits, matching a franchise season high, and their 15 runs were also a season high.
The game was tied at 12 when extra innings began, with Peyton Wilson starting the 11th as the automatic runner. Omaha scored three in the frame to pull away, while St. Paul had no pitchers left and turned to infielder Tanner Schobel, who had not allowed a run in his previous two appearances. The Saints had 18 hitters come to the plate and all 18 recorded hits at some point, and the game lasted 3 hours and 43 minutes.
