St. Louis' favorite catcher is trying to raise $1 million to help his home.

Puerto Rico has been battered this hurricane season, first by Irma and now a direct hit by Category 4 hurricane Maria. It was the strongest hurricane to slam into the island in more than 80 years.

Maria left the entire territory without electricity and toppled cell phone towers. It caused landslide and ripped the roofs off buildings.

Thursday, Yadi and his wife Wanda started a GoFundMe account in an attempt to raise $1 million for the island. In just a few hours, the campaign had already raised a few thousand dollars.
