It's still surreal to hear announcers talk about how he's only a few away in this stat or that stat from guys like Babe Ruth. It cannot be overstated how historic this guy's career has been.

Unanimous Hall of famer for sure what a career and an ever better person he represents the sport so well he will be missed

Even more impressive is the fact that most homers this year have been to either tie or go ahead

Just got home from the game! What a bomb! We were in the 12th row in Big Mac Land. Will remember that moment forever. Thanks for ALL the memories, Albert.

Felicidades Albert Pujols y a mis hermanos dominicanos por tan grande hazaña.🇩🇴🇵🇷

From a lifelong Dodgers fan.... Congrats on 701 & I hope he gets more!!.... Enjoyed having him in LA for a year!!!!!....... .......Be well, do well & God bless y'all🙏🏼🇺🇸

That was a very easy swing that made it to Big Mac Land. He is just The Machine.

Albert Pujols is a legend, a champion and a gentleman.

The feeling of him being back in a Cardinals uniform is indescribable. Just seeing him hit bombs, and that signature strut in Cardinal red brings me back to my years as a teenage Cardinals fan because of him and Jim Edmonds. What a legend, let's get him into more rare territory by getting his third ring.

22 home runs with as many PA he’s had is impressive. Overall solid season and extremely valuable to the team.

Never doubted him, there were moments when it seemed bleak he'd hit 700, but he's the machine. One of the best ever to play. Unreal what he has done his entire career 701 now

Sin ningún tipo de dopaje, sin bate de colcho, todo legal, Albert para mi el mejor bateador del mundo 🔥🔥🔥🇩🇴

This year has been filled with different record-breakers. Very grateful to be a part of it.

He's hitting the ball like a player in his prime. This is a 42 year old man running on pure adrenaline. It's beautiful.

I’ve had the privilege of meeting Albert Pujols and he’s such a nice guy. What an amazing career.

God to be a cardinals fan and watching this beast still play must be electric

Congratulations Pujols 701 home runs 🎉🎉🎉 An unforgettable legend

I honestly didn’t think he could get 700 this year. He proved me wrong

Congratulations on hitting career home run #701, Albert. You really deserve it.

What a year to be a baseball fan. Man, I love this sport!

if this man isn't a unanimous first ballot hall of famer....

I was in seventh grade when Hank Aaron was on the hunt for Ruth’s 714. I remember following it and listening to the game when he tied it on a transistor radio and a single ear piece during English class. It’s been fun to follow Alberts run this year . Kudos to those that play the game with class and excellence.

It's like they said, it's amazing how effortless his swing looks. You can see he has spent so much time working to make it perfect. And we all now see what that hard work is achieving. I am so badly wanting them to win it all this year. If there was ever a year to do it, this is it.

I'm a Texas Ranger fan. I'm still kind of disappointed he defeated my Rangers in the 2011 World Series which was a classic Showdown. But I told one guy who was a Cardinal fan I sure hope they keep him in St Louis. And looking throughout what he did with the angels was the biggest mistake of his career you could have had 800 career home runs and possibly 4000 base hits. But what a phenomenon Albert Pujols has been for the last 22 seasons.

Que galletaa🔥🔥. Dando clases de como se hace un swing🦾🦾. Lo que es el swing de Pujols y el de Bogarts, son los que más me gustan💪💪

What a effing legend. Advocate for the game and true pro. Everybody loved him like Beltre. Such an icon of the game. Much respect and his plaque will be forever cherished at Cooperstown on the first ballot.

What an incredible season it has been! So glad he decided to come back to the Cardinals for his final year. How amazing would it be if they won the World Series!

Idk why I'm teary-eyed I've watched him hit 500 hrs in my life time. But this one got me

Between him and judge this is a season to remember

De Republica Dominicana pa' el mundo Gracias a Dios....

La mera makina latina,,, puro poder inmaculado,, sin esteroides ni nada,, esfuerzo puro,,, grande pujols!!!

It’s incredible seeing a legend being a legend right now, live… surreal. Class act and amazing player.

Congratulations Albert on earning your way into the 700 club that is a very awesome, distinguished and elite club to be apart of! Congrats man!

Huge fan, and this is absolutely awesome!! 😀 What a truly historic year in baseball! Congrats to Albert Pujols on surpassing 700 home runs, keep up the good work! ☺

As an Astros fan I’m happy for him legitimately. Gotta love this sport!

Albert crushing the ball in to Big Mac land and named for Mark Mc Guire tonight was amazing. Somehow Albert regained his youth this year, or during the second half of this season. I did see Stan Musial in 1962 bat .330 almost winning the national league batting title finshing second at age 41 also amazing. It's such an amazing year for Albert. If Albert had not aged faster he would be getting compared right now to Babe Ruth as the greatest player ever. Musial and Aaron aged better, but this year it has all returned for him. I realize he did well last year for the Dodgers in a limited role, but after the first half of the season I never saw this coming. What a treat for St. Louis fans tonight.

Sé nota lo feliz que está, congratulation 🤩 Albert

99 till 800! I doubted he would get to 700 and now I am not doubting he'll get to 800 before the end of this season

Una inspiración para esta generación ❤❤❤❤❤

We are truly spoiled as CARDS fans in the Lou...I'm not sure just how many of us realize how historic this moment in time is...This WILL NOT HAPPEN in most of our lifetimes again, if ever... Appreciate the importance of what we're so fortunate to be watching now; this man, this MACHINE, the greatest right hand hitter in MLB history... Don't be surprised if this group brings home another World Series Championship; don't ever bet against Albert...Thank you Mr Pujols for this point in time, thank you for the memories.

Good job Albert,you're one of my favorites.From a Reds fan.

Bonds 762 Aaron 755 Ruth 714 Pujols 701 and more to come no doubt thanks for sharing this living legend

The machine just keeps on going💯💪🏽

I don't think I've seen a power swing more simple and brutal than Albert Pujols'. Ken Griffey Jr's was pretty, but Albert's is simply effortless and devastating all at once.

Best Cardinals hitter of all time

The last 3 years I’ve posted about Pujols reaching 700, and finally this year many started taking it seriously. Such an amazing career.

I literally turned the game back on RIGHT as he hit this ball

I'm a Red Sox fan so I can appreciate a relationship like this between player and fans. We had Big Papi. St. Louis has Albert. It really is a joy to watch the fans cheer him and even more so to watch how much he respects and appreciates the fans.

It's gonna be many years before we witness anything like this again. This is special.

Este tipo es imparable 🇩🇴🎉🎊❤️

It’s been a pleasure to watch this guy this man is a part of many childhood memories what a special moment and player

He’s just 299 away from 1,000 😁.

Now I want him to go for 800!! 😂❤

ALL TIME 700 HRS TOP 4 2,200 RBI TOP 3 3,000 HITS TOP 10 TOTAL BASES TOP 2 456 HR of different pitchers (MLB RECORD) *WORLD SERIES SINGLE GAME 5 HITS (TIED FOR 1ST) 3 HRS (TIED FOR 1ST) 6 RBI (TIED FOR 1ST)

Such a great swing.

HIT IT INTO BIG MAC LAND!!! Legend!!

22 Homers wowowwoowowowow what a resurgence for the Machine all there is to say what a way to cap off what of the most legendary preformaces in a MLB career pave the way for many latin players lets enjoy this last few games imagine

I have so much respect and appreciation for Pujols. (as a Royals fan). I always enjoyed watching him hitting bombs (except against us) and some of his homeruns over the years have been so epic and legendary. I hope keeps playing into 2023. Thank you again MLB for showing the entire at bat.

The dude has played at an MVP candidate caliber since the All-Star break. Unbelievable.

This guy is simply amazing! So humble. And he did it with papas and beer

Enjoy greatness everyone this dude is a BEAST

I was 9 years old when he hit his first homerun. I turn 31 tomorrow. Wild.

Bell telling y’all since August, 703….glad he got a 700+ in Busch Stadium too

It brings tears to my eyes, to be alive to witness what he has accomplished as one of the all-time greats........ SALUTE TO ALBERT PUJOLS!!!!

Im glad he hit one last one for the regular szn crowd at Home. Gives them a chance to reall enjoy 701

An absolute goat 🐐 love to see him getting his flowers and still doing it making it look ez.

One of the greatest ever.Period.

Los compañeros de Albert, están viviendo una experiencia muy bonita e historica; por esa parte nos salvamos un poco los dominicanos, tanta corrupción que nos arropa.

Waoooo todos de pies todavía puede jugar otra temporada sería interesante verlo en otra temporada

The baseball legend continues putting up numbers. Albert is such a well-spoken man on and off the field. Bravo👀👀

I can’t wait to go to Cooperstown and see the name “Albert Pujols” on his very own plaque. This guy is an absolute legend in the world of baseball, he is most definitely inspiring young fans and older fans who want to play baseball or just be a part of baseball.

Albert is truly a gifted athlete and amazing hitter.

550th BIGGEST LIKE ! ! ! I am SO happy for Albert and for all the Cardinal fans ! ! !

0:58 'He's gonna hit a bomb tonight, it's happenin'" Thanks for delivering Albert.

That swing looked completely effortless and he still managed to drive it 400ft 102mph exit velo

Hoping the cardinals can win it all this year in playoffs. Be a nice send off for Pujols and Molina.

I legitimately feel with some cardio and a few shed pounds Albert could play 3 more seasons and possibly take the overall HR title, it was a good ride nevertheless.

If somebody somehow convinced him to come back you could beat out Ruth

18th Major League Seasons with at least 20 homers or more. Third most ever all time only behind Barry Bonds and the late great Hank Aaron

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLE ITS TEAR -INDUCING

He could honestly break Bonds' record if he sticks around for another 2-3 years

He didn’t even look like he was trying to hit that one. Just effortless.

I can't stop watching this I'm going to miss Albert pujols and yari and Molina next year I only knew pools this year because I never knew him before but yadi I knew yadi and Molina like since I first moved to my grandparents and now I'm going to miss him

Waooo this man could possibly be one more year with St. Still and good shape and can see the ball very clearly and better that a lot of the player that are in the MLB!!!

This was the 27th sellout crowd of the season jammed inside Busch Stadium to celebrate Albert Pujols. It was an overcapacity crowd of 47,032 fans

Between miggy cabrera, albert pujols, aaron judge this seasons been an amazing one, lots of history being made

he is the true G.O.A.T got to 700 without any PED use.

2:00 I love the announcer was silent to let us hear the cheers and feel the great moment

Dang he is insane

Thank you for the amazing carrer you have Albert and we wish you have a great retirement..

Albert the machine 💪👈 Platano power 😃

I was there, it was awesome. The fans Energy before the game was unreal. STL has one of the best fan bases in the world, #gocards

a living legend

You can’t help but cheer for Pujols. The man is not just a cardinal legend ; he’s a MLB legend. He earned his spot in baseball history the right way. Hate to see him go cause players like him don’t come around very often. Pujols is the prime example of what a baseball player should be. What a career… One can’t help but respect and admire Albert Pujols. Keep the hrs coming!

We are watching the equivalent of Kobe scoring 60 in his last game

Let’s go Daddy Pujols

He should come back just one more year.

Welcome to the 701 club for Albert Pujos he’s chasing down Barry Bonds homerun numbers

701 homerun to Big Mac Zone!

I was there, sitting underneath Big Mac Land. Busch Stadium erupted when it left his bat. Glad I got to see it in person.
