BALTIMORE (AP) — Now in his 19th major league season, Albert Pujols still has the power and bat speed to hit a baseball a very long way.
Pujols homered twice to increase his total to 641, had three RBIs and scored three runs to help the Los Angeles Angels beat the Baltimore Orioles 7-2 Saturday.
Even at age 39, Pujols can carry an offense pretty much by himself.
“Others contributed, but Albert was the key contributor tonight,” manager Brad Ausmus said.
Pujols hit a two-run drive in the first inning and a solo shot in the fourth.
