If needed, Pierzynski no stranger to big stage

If Yadier Molina (strained left oblique) can’t catch Game 3 of the NLCS for the Cardinals on Tuesday, St. Louis just might luck out in replacing him. A.J. Pierzynski has a good rapport with John Lackey, the playoffs aren’t new to him, and he has a successful track record against Tim Hudson, the Giants’ starter on Tuesday.
