Pujols went 2-for-5 with a grand slam, a double and five RBI in the Cardinals' win over the Reds Friday. Recommendation: It was Pujols' fourth grand slam of the season and 10th of his career, both marks that tie him with Stan Musial for franchise records. The home run was also No. 350 in his career, making him the third youngest to reach that mark. "He beat us by himself," Reds manager Dusty Baker told the Cincinnati Enquierer. |
