Adding to the offensive output, Wyatt Henseler powered a homer for the Quakers, while Asa Wilson and Nick Spaventa contributed with two hits each.
Eli Trop impressed on the mound, securing his maiden save of the season with a flawless ninth inning.
The two teams will play again on Tuesday.
In a separate matchup, despite Ryan Weingartner's league-leading sixth home run for Saint Joseph's, the Hawks succumbed to Fairfield with a resounding 19-5 defeat in a game shortened by darkness.
Luke Zimmerman exhibited a standout performance, going 3-for-4 with a duo of doubles, while Conlan Wall added two hits to the mix. Fairfield's offensive explosion, particularly with 17 runs scored in the final two innings, proved insurmountable for the Hawks.
Defensive lapses, marked by four errors, compounded Saint Joseph's woes.
Looking ahead, the team now sets its sights on UNC-Wilmington for a weekend series starting Friday.
