Albert Pujols News
St. Louis Cardinals first baseman/designated hitter Albert Pujols officially signed his retirement papers on Monday with the team, according to a source. The future Hall of Famer made the All-Star team, had an amazing second half of the season and finished his final MLB campaign by slashing a very respectable .270/.345/.550 with an .895 OPS, 24 home runs, 68 RBI, 42 runs scored and even a stolen base in 109 games. The man they call the Machine reached the 700-home run club in 2022 and will finish his illustrious career as one of the all-time greatest hitters in the game. Pujols was an 11-time All-Star, three-time National League MVP and two-time World Series champion. The 42-year-old finishes with a .296/.374/.544 slash line, 703 homers, 2,218 RBI, 1,914 runs scored and 3,384 hits in 3,080 regular season games.
St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols is serving as the designated hitter and is batting second in Game 1 of the National League Wild-Card Series on Friday against the Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Zack Wheeler. Pujols has had a resurgent season with the Cardinals in what is expected to be his final major-league season. The 42-year-old future Hall of Famer reached the 700-homer mark late in the year and hit .270/.345/.550 with 24 home runs, 68 RBI, 42 runs scored and a stolen base in his 307 regular season at-bats. He's entering postseason play riding a five-game hitting streak in which he's gone 6-for-12 (.500) with three home runs, 10 RBI and six runs scored for the Cardinals.
St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols played in his final regular season game at Busch Stadium on Sunday. The veteran slugger smacked his 702nd home run, which ties him with Babe Ruth for second on the all-time list. Possibly, Pujols adds to his total before the season is over with three games left remaining on the schedule. The 42-year-old drove in three runs before being pulled out alongside Adam Wainwright and Yadier Molina in the fifth inning. The team wanted to celebrate their players even though it hurt their chances of winning the contest. Pujols will look to help the Cardinals win another ring before he rides off in the sunset.
