Ivan Herrera Out Of Lineup On Saturday
18 seconds agoSt. Louis Cardinals catcher Ivan Herrera is retreating to the bench for Saturday's game at Fenway Park against the hosting Boston Red Sox. Pedro Pages will be behind the plate to catch right-hander Andre Pallante and will hit seventh against Red Sox right-hander Richard Fitts. Herrera has already proven that he's the team's primary backstop this week -- Willson Contreras has moved to first base -- by hitting four home runs and driving in nine runs in the last two games. The 24-year-old backstop put on an offensive display in Wednesday's 12-5 win over the Los Angeles Angels by clubbing three home runs. He'll get a little breather on Saturday after opening the 2025 campaign on fire with eight hits in 20 at-bats, including two doubles and a league-high 11 RBI in six games. Pages has swung the bat well, too, going 4-for-10 with a homer, a double and three RBI in his first 10 plate appearances.
