Nootbaar drives in 3, Helsley records franchise record 49th save as Cardinals beat Giants 6-3

Associated Press  

SAN FRANCISCO — Lars Nootbaar homered and tripled to drive in three runs, Ryan Helsley closed for his franchise-record 49th save and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the San Francisco Giants 6-3 on Friday night. “He hits the ball hard and he’s got great plate discipline,” Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said. Helsley struck out two in the ninth for his majors-leading 49th save, setting a single-season record for the Cardinals in the process to surpass Trevor Rosenthal’s mark set in 2015. Giants manager Bob Melvin said before the game that reaching.500 to end the season — if the Giants win their two remaining games — is still noteworthy.
