Good – Albert Pujols
Twenty-something years after making his Major League Baseball debut at Coors Field in Denver, Pujols had a game to remember at that ballpark in what is his final season in the league.
In the first inning, Pujols singled on a liner to left field, scoring Paul Goldschmidt.

In the sixth inning, Pujols launched his eighth home run of the season and the 687th of his Hall of Fame career. The home was a fly to left field traveling 412 feet at 102.7 mph. It was a beautiful shot.
