St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina has his hand looked at by assistant trainer Chris Conroy after a hard slide into third base during a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Busch Stadium on July 9, 2014. The Cardinals have announced that Molina will have surgery on 7/11/2014 to repair a torn ligament in his thumb injured on the play. Molina, scheduled to be the starting catcher in the 2014 All-Star game, will now be out of action for 10-12 weeks. UPI/Bill Greenblatt
