Albert Pujols is closing in on 2,000 RBIs in his career

On Sunday afternoon LA Angels Albert Pujols passed another baseball legend with a flick of his wrists. Pujols drove a Homer Bailey pitch down the left-field line in the first inning that gave the Angels an early 2-0 lead over the Royals. The hit was significant as Pujols’ two RBIs gave him 1,997 in his career which allowed him to pass Barry Bonds into third place on the MLB All-Time RBI list. It also moved Pujols three RBIs away from reaching the 2,000 RBI mark.

Pujols could reach that mark in the three-game series against the Blue Jays beginning tomorrow in Anaheim.
