Albert Pujols - Team Player -  Team Leader - Destined for the MLB Hall of Fame.

 

3xMVP; 9xALLSTAR; 2x Golden Glove - Saint Louis Cardinals-World Series Champions 2006.

 

NOTE TO RECRUITERS & EMPLOYERS WHO FIXATE ON THE "BEST POSSIBLE CANDIDATE".

PAY ATTENTION TO THE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH CANDIDATE...OR EMPLOYEE WHO DOESN'T SHOW UP ON RADAR.  ALBERT PUJOLS was selected in the 13th Round by the STL Cardinals - Pujols was the  402nd pick of the 1,474 players drafted into MLB in 1999 and was immediately sent to the minors.

I shot this picture from the Nestle Purina Box Seats at the new Busch Stadium in 2006.  The same year the Saint Louis Cardinals won their 10th World Series Title.

 

I used a 400mm CANON lens on a CANON Camera...no tripod--hand-held all the way (for those who know the weight of a 400mm lens & camera).
