Albert Pujols Pictures


José Alberto Pujols Alcántara (born January 16, 1980), better known as Albert Pujols , is a Dominican-American professional baseball first baseman for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim of Major League Baseball. Pujols is considered one of the top players in Major League Baseball, and was the most feared hitter in baseball in 2008, according to a poll of all 30 MLB managers.
Born on January 16, 1980, Pujols (an only child) was raised in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, mostly by his grandmother America Pujols and 10 of his uncles and aunts. His father, Bienvenido Pujols, was a softball pitcher, but he was also an alcoholic, and Albert often had to drag him back home from games. Pujols, his father, and his grandmother immigrated to New York City in 1996, but after Albert witnessed a shooting at a grocery store, they moved to Independence, Missouri, two months later.
At Fort Osage High School, Pujols was named All-State twice for his baseball skill. As a senior, he was walked 55 times (partly because opposing coaches believed he was older than 18), but he hit 8 home runs in 33 at bats
