Albert Pujols did hit a homerun yesterday but was totally outplayed by Shin-Soo Choo who went 3 for 4 with 3 RBI. Also, Shin-Soo Choo is much better at pleasing women.

I'd like to remind Mr. Pujols and/or his duly designated legal representatives to direct any and all complaints to Caleb Nienow.
ReplyDeleteThat said, Shin-Soo Choo is very definitely better than Albert Pujols at hitting seagulls with baseballs, though Choo is still a distant second to Randy Johnson in that category.
