Knizner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He'll get a breather for the day game, paving the way for Austin Romine to get a turn behind the dish. Knizner appears to have re-established himself as St. Louis' top backstop in the absence of the injured Yadier Molina (knee) after going 7-for-15 with five RBI while starting at catcher in five of the Cardinals' previous six contests.
