Overview

Every fan old enough to punch out the space next to his name on the All-Star ballot can tell you that Albert Pujols is a one in a generation hitter and the only player in baseball history to hit .300, hit 30 or more home runs and drive in 100 or more runs in his first eight seasons in the majors. Albert Pujols: Simply the Best offers a compelling portrait of this superstar's life and prolific career.
