This year just continues to get more and more emotional for MLB legend and former Dodgers fan favorite, Albert Pujols.
From announcing his retirement prior to the 2022 season to losing longtime Dodgers broadcaster and friend Vin Scully to playing in his final Home Run Derby, final postseason, and final game of his career to being awarded the Stan Musial Lifetime Achievement Award for Sportsmanship.
Pujols humbly and emotionally accepted the award at this year’s usual Awards on Saturday evening. The award is given out annually and recognizes “iconic sports figures who exemplify sportsmanship and embody the class, dignity, generosity, excellence, civility, and integrity for which Stan Musial was known for.
