    Nootbaar has gone 9-for-20 (.450) with three extra-base hits and six RBI during his five-game hitting streak. The outfielder continues to look good as the Cardinals' primary leadoff hitter, though he's gone 14 games without a stolen base. For the season, he's slashing .285/.399/.417 with four home runs, 21 RBI, 25 runs scored and five steals over 39 contests.

    Nootbaar went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 10-3 loss to the Reds.

    He launched his fourth homer of the season in the fifth inning, taking Ben Lively deep for a solo shot. Nootbaar has enjoyed a solid May with a .291/.374/.419 slash line, two home runs, three steals, 14 RBI and 15 runs in 22 games, and he's been the one constant this season in an otherwise injury-riddled Cardinals outfield.

  • Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Sitting against southpaw

    Nootbaar is not in the starting lineup Monday against Cincinnati, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

  • Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Crosses plate four times

    Nootbaar went 2-for-4 with two walks and four runs in Monday's 18-1 win over the Brewers.

    Nootbaar has been rewarded handsomely from sitting atop a potent St. Louis lineup that has produced 27 runs over the past two games, as he's come around to score seven times. The lefty-hitting Nootbaar will drop toward the bottom of the order when St. Louis faces southpaws, but he looks like he'll be locked into the leadoff role versus righties now that he's overcome his slow start to the season. Since the beginning of May, Nootbaar is slashing .380/.475/.520 with five extra-base hits, three steals, 13 runs and seven RBI in 13 games.

  • Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Strong again Saturday

    Nootbaar went 3-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Tigers.

    Nootbaar is on a tear now, going 9-for-14 (.643) over his last three games. That's the kind of spark the Cardinals need from their leadoff hitter against right-handed pitchers, but the rest of the lineup has been a bit too inconsistent for it to matter in the win column. Nootbaar's surge has him up to a .304/.442/.420 slash line with two home runs, three steals, seven RBI and 10 runs scored through 20 contests.
