Saying that Yadier Molina stood out playing in the MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night would be an understatement.
Molina wore a flashy, all-gold protective vest while behind the dish, and it was pretty awesome.
He looked like a gladiator who was set to conquer an entire civilization by himself.

BUSTER POSEY (to Yadier Molina): Hey, looks like the only thing that isn't gold on your uniform is the glove.

For the record, I’m a fan of it. It’s great to see players having fun in the midsummer classic again, now that the pressure of earning home-field advantage in the World Series is off.
