Saints Jolt 49ers, 9-1, with Late Rally
The New Orleans Saints took San Francisco pitcher Ben Hornberger's best shot and still were able to claim a win at 49ers Park. The final score had New Orleans getting past the 49ers, 9-1. Hornberger went 7.1 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 10. The loss lowers the San Francisco record to 4-3.

New Orleans used a timely hit from Jesus Lopez to get the win. The second baseman stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Saints ahead, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We put our best foot forward tonight," said a smiling Lopez.
