A committed player

The 33-year-old Major League baseball catcher, who only played for the Cardinals since 2004, per ESPN stats, is really dedicated in his chosen sport. Before their first game against the Chicago Cubs in the Division Series on Oct. 9, he was suffering from a left thumb injury, Fox Sports informed.Yet, Molina still intended to play.

Cardinals manager Mike Matheny knew it hurt their catcher, who injured his thumb on Sept. 20 during a tag play.

"I think he feels pain. He just doesn't recognize it, or know how to define it," Matheny said.

"Obviously, it was a serious injury. The trainers and doctors did a great job. The pain's going to be there. So, I'm ready to go," Molina shared.

Third baseman Matt Carpenter commended Molina for his devotion and his skills.

"What he does behind the plate more than anything is a game-changer. He's really good at what he does," Carpenter said.
