Saints Win Squeaker, 5-4, Over Commanders
The New Orleans Saints withstood a fine game by Washington center fielder Elijah Bennett at Louisiana Superdome, to upend the Commanders, 5-4. Bennett was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. New Orleans reliever Travis Garvin got the win, raising his record to 1-0. Gabe Orosco was tagged with the loss. Dave McMenemy recorded the save for New Orleans, his 4th of the season.

New Orleans took a 5-4 lead on Jamy van der Linden's 3rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which van der Linden hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Washington pitcher Gabe Orosco visibly frustrated.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said van der Linden.

The win gives New Orleans a record of 16-11.
