Albert Hits Number 703 (10/3/22) - Moves into sole possession of 2nd place all-time in RBIs

Yeah, the guys have a good point about Milwaukee. If they keep playing like they are now, and the Cardinals run out in front, he could get close. I want him to pass Arod even though Arod doesn't even count.
I'll guess 697 because Arod is the worst.
I also wouldn't be totally surprised if he came back in the spring to get there and then retired. Probably not, but Clemens retired 3 times, same with Favre. Brady has now retired once and is back.

It would be cool but he recently, just in the last few days, reiterated that it is not his intention.

Honestly, it would be cool to get to 700 but I think it would be best for his legacy to go out this way even if he only gets a few more. He's turned back the clock if only for a moment and fans can see a glimpse of what we saw for 11 years.

I know it's supposed to be his last, but the way he's batting I could see them offering him another year. I'd love to see 700.

Pretty sure he gets it tonight if madbum goes entire game
-
He is 2 for 2 tonight with 2 HRs. So up to 692.

It is becoming more and more possible by the day

Man, he smoked his third hit of the night as well but it was too much of a line drive and hit off the wall.
-
I hope he makes it to 700. Man deserves it. Every time he hits one it puts a smile on my face.

He won't get 700.
That wasn't the question.
I wasn't answering a question.

You are the winner my friend

Can we all agree if he gets to 699, whoever the Cards play, need to sign Brad Lidge? Pujols jacking 700 off a pitch from lidge would bring back such memories

He says whetever he ends up with he ends up with. but hes gotta be looking at that 7 with 2 zeros now.

He just hit 693 at Wrigley. That's 8 HR in his last ~50 PA.
Everybody should watch it and see just how far out of the zone that pitch was. It was a foot high.
Of course when that happens in the game that is just unrealistic.

#694 tonight
Yep broke another record, which it seems he is doing every game these days. It was the 450th pitcher he has hit a home run off which is an all time record.
Not Pujols related but Wainwright and Yadi are only 3 starts away from setting an all time record that will probably never be broken again. They have started 322 games as a battery. That is only 2 behind the Mickey Lolich and Bill Freehan.
-
Pujols ties Rodriguez with his 696th HR tonight.
