Pujols Spoils Shutout with #300


Albert Pujols, who is still batting lights out at .348 on the season, nailed his 300th career homer on Friday during the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1 loss to the rival Chicago Cubs.

The slugging first baseman ruined the shutout with his 18th homer of the season, nicking the left-field foul pole on a 2-2 pitch from reliever Bob Howry in the eighth.

Pujols, 28 years and 170 days old, is the fifth-youngest player to reach the 300-homer milestone, beating out Hall of Famer Mel Ott by one day.
