Contreras kicked off the scoring with a first-inning sacrifice fly against White Sox starter Sean Burke before taking lefty reliever Cam Booser deep for a game-tying blast — his 10th round-tripper of the season — in the eighth. The 33-year-old former catcher turned first baseman has graded out as an elite, top-five range backstop for fantasy purposes this season, hitting .249/.338/.421 with 36 runs scored, 10 homers, 48 RBI and three steals through 70 contests.

Helsley got the call to guard a narrow one-run advantage in the front-end of Thursday’s doubleheader at Rate Field and needed just 10 pitches (seven strikes) to mow down the heart of Chicago’s resurgent lineup. It was his first scoreless outing since May 31, snapping a streak of four straight appearances where he allowed at least one run. He’s converted 14 of 19 save opportunities this season to accompany a respectable 3.81 ERA and 31/12 K/BB ratio across 26 innings (26 appearances).

Fedde drew the starting assignment for the opening contest of Thursday’s doubleheader and departed on the hook for a potential loss against his former club after giving up a go-ahead single to Miguel Rojas in the fifth inning. Fortunately, the Cardinals offense wound up rallying in the eighth to spare him. He finished with four strikeouts and only issued a pair of walks. The 32-year-old righty has struggled to miss bats this season, recording just 55 punchouts over 84 innings of work. However, he’s been a decent ratio stabilizer with a respectable 3.54 ERA and 1.30 WHIP through 15 starts. He’ll square off against the Cubs on Tuesday in his next outing.
