Albert Pujols delivers a pinch-hit home run on Sunday
by Jon Mathisen | Sun, Sep 5th 11:45pm EDT
First baseman Albert Pujols went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit two-run homer as the Dodgers fell to the Giants 6-4 on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact:
Pujols didn't start this one and entered the ball game as a pinch-hitter in the top of the ninth inning with the Dodgers trailing 6-2. He took San Francisco closer Jake McGee deep for a two-run homer, his 16th of the year, to pull the Dodgers within two runs. They would go on to lose anyway, however. The veteran Pujols is now slashing .239/.285/.442 with 16 home runs, 48 RBI, and two stolen bases over 251 at-bats on the year.
