Benjamin José "Bengie" Molina (born July 20, 1974, in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico), nicknamed "Big Money" is a Major League Baseball catcher who is currently playing for the San Francisco Giants. He is the older brother to José Molina and Yadier Molina. Molina also has a younger half brother, Yuniel Molina, a resident of Miami, Fl and a Political Science student at Florida International University.After being initially regarded as a "good glove, no hit" catcher, Molina has developed into a free swinging power hitter in addition to retaining his solid defense. However, at 5'11" and weighing 225 pounds, Molina is regarded as one of the slowest baserunners in the game.
