"Not only is he an elite catcher, Yadier Molina has become the face of the Cardinals organization. I actually ordered the DVD to watch the final out over and over to find the best moments and Yadi’s reaction said it all. To all of the fans out there, I hope you enjoy spending time finding your favorite games and reliving that epic season," Duffy says.
