“That was amazing,” Adam Wainwright said. “That’s one of those moments you’ve got to enjoy. From my standpoint, I kind of unlocked for a second just to laugh and be a part of that.”

With 3308 hits and 681 home runs, Pujols is already one of the greatest ever to play the game. But given the season has just started, he has an excellent opportunity to enter the 700 home runs club. As of now, only Babe Ruth, Barry Bonds, and Henry Aaron are the only members of the 700 home runs club.
