Albert Hits Number 703 (10/3/22) - Moves into sole possession of 2nd place all-time in RBIs
-
700 would be nice, but he already did the big thing and passed A Roid for number 4 all time. Unless he catches Ruth, 17 more lol, he will still be 4th. Gotta wonder where he would be if we had a full 2020 instead of 60 games, and/or he lived up to some of the Angels contract. He should be closing out his career on top the HR charts.
-
I think he gets it. If I’m playing against the Cardinals and my team is out of the race, I would definitely be leaving a few fastballs down the middle for him.
-
I say he hits, one this week and 2 in his final game to go out in epic fashion for 700.
-
He'd already be at 298 if it wasn't for Mike Tauchman of the Giants. He robbed a walk-off homer from Pujols.
-
Next week they’ll play the Dodgers. I hope we give him a few pitches to hit his 3 homeruns if he isn’t there yet.

I saw a video somewhere, I can' t remember where, that showed a collection of potential home runs by Pujols that were robbed over the years. It was enough that he would be over 700 easily.
And I have to believe that there are more because I don't think there is an easy way to go through a 20 year career and find them all.
-
If they have any more games against Pittsburgh, he will.
-
Most people want to see him get to 700. Hope he gets there.
-
Reds coming to town, good chance for at least one this weekend.
-
Number 698 tonight against the Reds. A two run homer to tie the game.
-
Nooooooooooo

I’m at the game right now. Nothing from Albert today unfortunately.

At least you saw a Win and a Yadi homer.

Yep, it was a good game. Hudson actually pitched really well for a change. The Yadi homer was pretty epic. The Reds didn't give Albert anything to swing at his first two at bats, both walks.

Is anyone else kinda getting sick of him?
I mean humility isnt bad, but he could be a little excited about it. -

I mean humility isnt bad, but he could be a little excited about it.Actually to an old school guy like me it's pretty refreshing, today's players will bat flip a homerun when they're down by 10 so I appreciate his "been there done that" attitude.
-
Pujols is a beast. Still has one of the better ESPN commercials from back in the day

Absolutely! And Albert is 100% real also. He doesn't just turn it on in front of the cameras.
