Cardinals Starting Lineup 4-17-16: Eric Fryer Starts, Yadier Molina Rests

St. Louis Official Twitter

Yadier Molina's healthy hitting — the Cardinals' starting catcher had nine hits in four games before Saturday's loss to the Reds — and backup catcher Brayan Pena's knee injury made it difficult for manager Mike Matheny to find an off day for his eight-time Gold Glove Award winner.

The first 30,000 fans age 16 and older entering the ballpark today will receive a Yadier Molina replica jersey, but the St. Louis Cardinals catcher will not be in the starting lineup as his team plays the rubber game against the Cincinnati Reds. Instead, Eric Fryer will make his first start with the organization.

Before Sunday’s game with the Cincinnati Reds, an executive from Rawlings is scheduled to present catcher Yadier Molina with his eighth straight Gold Glove. The St. Louis Cardinals also are giving away a replica of Molina’s jersey to the first 30,000 fans who show up.
