MIAMI -- Daniel Descalso wasn't watching live, but he quickly tuned in on his phone when he saw Saturday night's late news that his former teammate, Albert Pujols, had notched his 600th career homer.
The Angels' first baseman became just the ninth player in Major League history to join the 600 home run club, a feat Descalso marveled at.
"There's only a handful of guys that have ever hit that many home runs," Descalso said. "For me to play with one of those nine guys is pretty cool."
Though briefly, the two played together with the Cardinals in 2010 and in Descalso's first full season in '11.
