The recently retired Albert Pujols has been writing chapter after chapter in his retirement story. First, he traded his bat for a basketball and took to the hard court as a player in the NBA All-Star celebrity game. Now, he’s back in the ballpark, but this time as a special assistant for the Los Angeles Angels. But that’s not all. In a recent turn of events, Pujols has decided to part ways with his luxurious mansion in Leawood. Looks like he’s ready to begin anew!
As Pujols embarks on this new journey, it’s worth taking a closer look at the place where the legend spent his prime years – Kansas City where his mansion resides. The city is the very place where he took his first steps, as a college baseball player, to become an MLB legend.
