With both teams below .500, this mid-week series in Detroit still presents some intriguing storylines, most notably the chance for Angels first baseman and DH Albert Pujols to make history (alongside former Detroit Tigers manager Brad Ausmus making his not-so-triumphant return to Comerica Park).
On Saturday against Houston, Pujols recorded career RBI number 1,999, putting him just one away from cementing himself as one of the all-time greats to ever play the game. It now is very possible that Comerica Park could be the venue where Pujols joins the ranks of Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Alex Rodriguez, and Cap Anson in the prestigious 2,000 RBI Club.
