Albert Pujols 700 home runs: Cardinals legend reaches rare ... (CBS sports.com)

Pujols joins distinct company in the form of some of the most prolific sluggers the game has ever seen: Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth. Pujols first ...

Pujols has been one of the best in history in maxing out on this front. We celebrate things like 500 home runs, 3,000 hits, 3,000 strikeouts and the like, so being the fourth person to 700 home runs is a pretty significant accomplishment. Louis Cardinals](https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/teams/STL/st-louis-cardinals/) legend [Albert Pujols](/mlb/players/223571/albert-pujols/) became the fourth player in Major League Baseball history to reach 700 career home runs on Friday night with a two-homer effort against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Getting to 700 doesn't move Pujols on the career leaderboard; it's just a nice-round number. He's never strayed from his declaration that he was playing in 2022 and not a single year longer, despite the possibility that he could get so close to 700 and still fall short. Pujols joins distinct company in the form of some of the most prolific sluggers the game has ever seen: Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth.

He was waived by the Angels in May 2021, and then joined the Dodgers and hit 12 homers and drove in 38 runs in 85 games. He was selected by the Cardinals in the 13th round of the 1999 amateur draft and won the 2001 NL Rookie of the Year award. He helped the Cardinals to World Series titles in 2006 and 2011. He set a career high with 49 homers in 2006 — one of seven seasons with at least 40 homers. It's his highest total since he hit 23 homers for the Angels in 2019. Pujols snapped a tie with Alex Rodriguez for fourth on the career list when he hit career homer No. He was replaced in the eighth by Burleson, who added a pinch-hit homer. He's raking this year, so it feels like he's got a lot more left in the tank." "It's pretty special, especially with the Dodgers fans, to do it here," Pujols said. He took a curtain call, raising his cap in acknowledgment. 700 in the fourth. It was always about winning championships and tried to get better in these games."

How to give up a home run to Albert Pujols, an expert's guide (Sportsnet.ca)

Ryan Dempster, self-proclaimed foremost expert on surrendering home runs to Albert Pujols, breaks down what makes the newest member of MLB's 700-dinger club ...

“He is as locked in right now as I think I’ve ever seen him,” says Dempster. The native of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, returned to the Cardinals for one last hurrah after spending a decade with the Angels (plus a half-season with the Dodgers) and as his 2022 unfolded, he seemed to find new life, producing his strongest offensive numbers in years. Maybe he’d sit on a pitch and if you made a mistake with that pitch, you’re going to pay. Edmonds, who had spent seven years playing alongside Pujols with the Cardinals, told the pitcher that the next time he faced Pujols late in a game, to beware of throwing him anything on the outer half of the plate. When Dempster was traded to the American League toward the end of his career, Pujols was right there waiting. Pujols moved into sole possession of the fourth spot on MLB’s all-time home run list when he hit his 697th homer on Sept. If you executed your pitch, he still might hit a home run.’ That’s how good he was.” The Cubs had a three-game cushion on the second-place Cardinals for the NL Central lead in early September 2008 with Dempster on the mound to start a key three-game series in St. His climb in the record books intensified as he clubbed eight homers in August. “Just because of the scouting report he could give those hitters. The right-hander held a 3-0 lead into the sixth inning, when he surrendered back-to-back singles, bringing Pujols to the plate representing the tying run. So, to be able to compete against him and have success and have failures [made] moments you look back on way later in life and remember.”

Albert Pujols : une fin de carrière digne d'Hollywood - Passion MLB (Passion MLB)

Il y a 16 mois, les Angels le libéraient et il était à 33 circuits du plateau des 700 longues balles. Son année 2022 a carrément effacé ses vilaines années ...

Il avait quatre circuits après trois mois et en deuxième moitié de saison, il a ajouté à sa légende. Son passage au concours de circuits a été mémorable, mais cela lui a donné des ailes pour la deuxième moitié de saison, où il est redevenu plus « qu'un gars qui peut frapper les gauchers ». Finalement, il a fini la saison 2021 avec les Dodgers dans un rôle de profondeur. Jouer si longtemps n'est pas facile et il y a eu des moments difficiles. Pour les Dodgers, ça a été facile puisque le match d'hier avait lieu au Dodger Stadium, son stade de 2021. Évidemment, depuis ce moment-là, tout le monde lui rend hommage.
