The iconic catcher hit a home run to tie the game Tuesday, drilled another homer to break that tie, and then doubled later as the Cardinals pulled away for a 6-3 victory against Milwaukee at Miller Park. The 10 total bases tied a career-best for Molina at the same time he moved into the top 10 in major-league history with his 1,919th game caught. His seventh multi-homer game surpassed Ted Simmons’ six for the most all-time by a Cardinals catcher.
The Cardinals scored six runs for their sixth consecutive game, won their sixth consecutive game, and their ninth in their past 10.
