Lewis Vaughan equalised for the Sons in the 37th minute after he controlled a long ball superbly, but the hosts should have reclaimed the lead soon after only for Rory Loy to see his penalty saved by Alan Martin
Home defender Adam Eckersley was shown a red card in the closing stages after picking up a second booking, but it came too late on to adversely affect the Saints' cause.
