Albert Pujols

He was the starting first baseman for the World Series Champion Cardinals in 2006 and 2011

José Alberto Pujols Alcántara, widely known as Albert Pujols, is a Dominican-American former professional baseball player who left an indelible mark on Major League Baseball (MLB). Over his 22-season career, Pujols played for the St. Louis Cardinals, Los Angeles Angels, and Los Angeles Dodgers, earning a reputation as one of the greatest hitters in the history of the sport. His nickname, "The Machine," reflects his consistent and powerful performance at the plate, where he combined patience, contact-hitting ability, and raw power to dominate opposing pitchers. Pujols' career is filled with accolades, including three National League (NL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) awards and 11 All-Star selections.

Pujols' offensive prowess is highlighted by his numerous statistical achievements. He led the NL in home runs twice and also topped the league in batting average, doubles, and RBIs at various points in his career. In 2018, Pujols reached the prestigious milestone of 3,000 career hits, becoming only the 32nd player in MLB history to do so. His ability to hit for both power and average made him a feared presence in any lineup, and his consistency over two decades solidified his place among the all-time greats. Pujols' return to the Cardinals in 2022 was a fitting conclusion to his career, as he moved into second place all-time for career RBIs and total bases, while also becoming just the fourth player in MLB history to hit 700 home runs.

Defensively, Pujols was no slouch either, winning two Gold Glove awards at first base during his career. His versatility and leadership on the field made him a valuable asset to every team he played for. Beyond his individual accolades, Pujols was instrumental in leading the St. Louis Cardinals to two World Series championships in 2006 and 2011. His postseason performances were often as impressive as his regular-season dominance, further cementing his legacy as one of the most complete players in the game.

Pujols' impact on the game of baseball extends beyond his on-field achievements. He has been a role model for younger players and a respected figure in the baseball community. His work ethic, professionalism, and dedication to the sport have earned him admiration from fans, teammates, and opponents alike. As he transitions into retirement, Pujols' legacy as one of the greatest hitters and most respected figures in baseball history is secure.
