The 42-year-old slugger hit No. 699 in the third inning, then launched No. 700 in the fourth at Dodger Stadium.
St. Louis Cardinals designated hitter Albert Pujols watches his career home run number 700, as a three-run home run in the 4th inning of a game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sept. 23, 2022, at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.It's been a remarkable run for Pujols. This was his 14th home run since the start of August for the NL Central-leading Cardinals, and his 21st of the season.
The fans chanted"Pujols! Pujols!" They finally sat down after being on their feet in anticipation of seeing history. "I know that early in the year ... I obviously wanted better results," Pujols said after he homered in a 1-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Aug. 22."But I felt like I was hitting the ball hard. Sometimes this game is going to take more away from you than the game giving you back.
