St Helens capitalized on a lackluster performance from Leeds Rhinos to secure a well-deserved Super League victory.
According to bbc.com, Kyle Feldt opened the scoring for the home side with two penalty goals in the first 25 minutes.
Just before half-time, Deon Cross extended St Helens' lead by scoring the first try of the game.
Leeds showed improvements in the second half, with Riley Lumb scoring a try in the corner, marking his 10th for the season.
Despite this, the Rhinos struggled with a series of handling errors, which hampered their momentum in the sweltering heat.
St Helens' Owen Dagnall and Tristan Sailor then added further tries, sealing the victory for the injury-plagued Saints.
After this match, Leeds remains in third place on 20 points, experiencing their first defeat in six games, while St Helens sits fifth, just two points behind.
