Brothers Molina thrive as two catchers on Angels
Angels catcher Bengie and his brother Jose share a locker and a position as they both start for Los Angeles. The pair, one a two time Gold Glove winner and the other a strong major league back up, learned together from their parents in Puerto Rico. Their family also includes Yadier, a Cardinal, making three MLB catchers in one family. They emphasize support, healthy competition, and pride in their legacy from World Series rings won in 2002.
