Albert Pujols’ remarkable 2022 campaign continued with another memorable moment Friday night at Busch Stadium.
A week after joining the legendary 700 home run club at Dodgers Stadium, Pujols notched career long-ball No. 701 in front of the home crowd.
With the Cardinals trailing the Pittsburgh Pirates 1-0 in the bottom of the fourth inning, Pujols stepped to the plate facing starter Johan Oviedo. Behind in the count at 1-2, Pujols smashed a hanging slider into Big Mac Land for his 22nd home run of the season.
