ST. PAUL, MN (February 3, 2022) - From 130 to 144 to 150. The number of games the St. Paul Saints played in 2021. The number of games they were scheduled to play in 2022. The number of games they will now play in 2022. Major League Baseball announced that the Triple-A season will be extended by six games in the month of September and the St. Paul Saints will now finish the season at home.
The original 144-game schedule for the Saints remains the same, but there are now six additional games added. The Saints final road series against the Indianapolis Indians (Pittsburgh Pirates) which was originally scheduled for September 19-21, will now go from September 19-24. The Saints will have Sunday, September 25 off and will return home for a three-game series against the Omaha Storm Chasers (Kansas City Royals) from Monday, September 26-Wednesday, September 28.
The Saints will play a total of 150 games, 75 at home and 75 on the road. Game times for the final three home games against the Storm Chasers are 7:07 p.m. The Saints will open the season on Tuesday, April 5 at Louisville.
The Saints, who are a part of the Midwest Division, will play their two closest rivals the Iowa Cubs (Chicago Cubs) and Storm Chasers the most. They will play the I-Cubs 24 times, 12 at home and 12 on the road, and 27 games against the Storm Chasers, 15 at home and 12 on the road. The Saints will play the remainder of the division 18 times, except for Indianapolis whom they will play 21 times. The breakdown is as follows: Columbus Clippers (Cleveland Guardians, six home and 12 on the road), Indianapolis Indians (12 at home and nine on the road), Louisville Bats (Cincinnati Reds, six home and 12 on the road) and Toledo Mud Hens (Detroit Tigers, six home and 12 on the road). The Saints will play four teams outside of the Midwest Division for the first time in franchise history. They take on three teams from the Northeast Division: Buffalo Bisons (Toronto Blue Jays, six games on the road), former Twins affiliate the Rochester Red Wings (Washington Nationals, six home games), and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (New York Yankees, six home games). The Saints play one team from the Southeast Division, the Nashville Sounds (Milwaukee Brewers, six home games).
Most series are six games in length, beginning on Tuesday and going through Sunday with all, but three Monday’s being league-wide off-days. The only exception to the six-game series is when the league takes a four-day hiatus during the Major League All-Star break, from July 21-24, when the Saints play a three-game series in Indianapolis from July 22-24. The only three Monday’s that aren’t an off day are Monday, July 4 at Louisville (the two teams will have Tuesday, July 5 off) and the final two Monday’s of the season on September 19 and 26. That final road series is also the lone six-game set that won’t be played Tuesday-Sunday and instead goes Monday-Saturday.
Overall, the Saints have 11 homestands, with two, 12-game homestands, eight, six-game homestands, and a three-game homestand.
The Saints will play two, 12-game roadtrips, eight, six-game roadtrips, and one, three game series.
