Albert Pujols is pretty good at baseball

Albert Pujols is currently 9th in batting average, 1st in home runs and 1st in RBIs in the National League. He already has two Most Valuable Player awards (and arguably could have more).

But this story about Sunday's game (Pujols' St. Louis Cardinals beat the Kansas City Royals) makes it even more clear how good Pujols is:

El Hombre didn't just provide the difference with four hits, including two home runs, his ninth career grand slam and six RBIs; he quite literally called his four-run shot.

After opening the third inning with a fly out, Pujols returned to the Cardinals clubhouse to review video. There he predicted to assistant hitting coach Mike Aldrete that his next at-bat would ricochet off the yet-to-open Royals Hall of Fame behind the visitors bullpen in left field. "He didn't say he might hit the Hall of Fame. He said he would hit the Hall of Fame," Aldrete recalled.

Pujols returned in the fourth inning against Royals starting pitcher Gil Meche with the bases loaded and one out in a 4-4 game. Pujols and Meche reached a full count. By then Meche had shown Pujols every pitch in his repertoire except a change-up. When Meche finally threw the pitch, Pujols swatted it some 423 feet off a Hall of Fame window.

Not only did he call that he's going to hit a home run, but he also called where he was going to hit it.

He's good.
