VIDEO: Albert Pujols hit two home runs and reached 689 in MLB

Albert Pujols continues to establish himself as the fifth greatest home run hitter in the history of MLB (689), since this Sunday he hit his 9th and 10th four-base hits of the season, in the match where his St. Louis Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 6-3.

Meanwhile, the legendary Dominican slugger hit the road again in the eighth frame, when he caught a fastball off the Taylor Rogers bolt to bring three runs into the register and turn the game around.
