I really need to see Target Field. Vic rates it very highly.

Nice job, Tepera

Seeing that low and inside pitch on which Pujols hit #700, I’m convinced that would have been a grounder to the third baseman if he were still an Angel.

That’s a fake. He’s running on his toes. He’s flat footed. 😉

He’s been getting BP pitches for the last couple of weeks.

Not a fan at all but it’s really impressive for a 45 year old to do this.

Loved the little smirk on his face as he walked off. Filthy pitch.

If Perry cut Walsh instead of Pujos, we’d be in 1st

Nope, Pujols would have continued to suck as an Angel.

But he would have extended the hell out of his major-league record number of double plays!!!!

Crazy … 1+ years since he left and he only has 15 more. That would qualify as one of his lowest season totals if referenced against his career DPs.

Pujols just hit another HR.

Cards 2
Dodgers 0

Still early though.

Albert is now sitting at 699. Guess what folks ?

He IS going to get to 700.

Gotta give him his props for the way he is finishing his career. Playoff still to come, too!

Yeah, Salmon finished with 299. Of course the difference between them is that 700 is much, much, much more exclusive. Only Bonds, Aaron and Ruth in that elite group. Albert to become only the 4th ever.

Look who homered in Salmon’s last game:
HR: Jeff Mathis (2, off Rich Harden, 4th inn, 2 on, 1 out to CF); Dallas McPherson (7, off Brad Halsey, 5th inn, 0 on, 2 outs to LF); Robb Quinlan (9, off Jay Witasick, 7th inn, 0 on, 1 out to CF).
