Major League Baseball entered its last month of the regular season and teams continue to fight hard for a postseason spot. But also, the Dominican Albert Pujols is in search of the 700 home runs and because of this, the candidate for the Hall of Fame, Alex Rodríguez; invited the legendary hitter to fight to see who can reach that number of hits.
The words of the former New York Yankees player are due to the fact that the powerful hitter of the St. Louis Cardinals , is just two home runs away from matching his own record; which was 696 home runs.
“My brother Albert Pujols is two home runs away from tying me in the 550. Right now you see me dressed in stripes and now that 13 is available in the New York Yankees, maybe I’ll have to make a little comeback and compete with you until the 696 home runs. What do you say”, commented Alex Rodríguez.
A-Rod is aware that his brand will be broken at any moment and for him and for all those who follow to Albert Pujols, it will be very important and historical that he manages to overcome him and why not, reach such a mentioned figure.
On the other hand, being one of the best hitters in the history of the Majors , it is very unlikely that he will return to action, since he has not seen action for more than five seasons and is already a candidate for the Hall of Fame.
In this way, game by game, it serves to that every human being and every baseball follower take the audacity to witness each turn of Albert Pujols in this last month of the season so that he can reach the 700 home runs.
