You do have to admitt
that a hanging slider was a pretty bad decision.
Albert Pujols was 9 for 18 against David Weathers with 2 HR's before that at bat
That whole situation was a bad decision. That is on Dusty.

I saw that (Albert's bases loaded slugging %) on the ESPN graphic
and I just had to dig a bit deeper. Interesting find:
Albert Pujols 2009 situational splits (NOTE: bases loaded is after tonight’s game, other are before)
AVG/OBP/SLG/OPS
RISP 2 outs .071/.581/.071/.652 (1/14 w/ 17 BB)
Leading off .385/.429/.731/1.160 (our new lead off hitter?)
and, my favorite,
Bases loaded .857/.750/2.571/3.321 (no walks, yet, w/ 3 on)
That line with bases loaded is absolutely ridiculous.

I;m sick of that guy, and his whiney un sportsmanlike behavior. Would Votto behave like a whiney little girl after he pops up like that? No. Accusing a great young pitcher of cheating cus you can’t catch up to his split finger? That’s garbage. Pujols is a jerk

I was in the Harrah's poker room tonight during the last half of the game
and man,it erupted in there when Pujols hit the grand slam, it was awesome.
Just wanted to share this good news
since last night I put the bad news up after the game.
In the last 14 games Albert Pujols has started (since the beginning of the KC series in KC), he has hit .409/.544/1.000 with 7 homers and 5 doubles (with 6 singles) in 57 plate appearances (44 AB). He has scored 10 runs, driven in 19, walked 13 times (7 IBB) and struck out only 8 times. Wow.
As always, Albert Pujols is ridiculous.
Interesting
WPA Leaders for tonight:
J Hoffpauir .469
A Pujols .459
Next in line is:
S Schumaker .083
Pujols and Hoffpauir were ridiculous.

I've been rooting for hoffpauir for years now

Well done, JH. And welcome to MLB. Glad I got to see your first couple of PA’s…. Not swinging that first time up, where you walked on 4 pitches, had to be excruciating. But that first base hit was a thing of beauty.
