Vagabonds' miserable run of away results continued when they went down 27-14 away at Sale who had previously lost all their home games.
Vagas trailed 19-7 at half-time with Ross McCulloch crossing for a try which was converted by Leigh Kennaugh.
In the second half, Vagas pulled a try back through Sam Brennan , again converted by Kennaugh, but Sale’s lead was just too big.
