As Albert Pujols continues to climb the all-time home run list amid his farewell season, he's also setting major league records in the process.
On Thursday night in Cincinnati, the St. Louis Cardinals slugger hit career home run No. 694, and it came against a 450th different pitcher, a big league record.
This time, it was Reds reliever Ross Detwiler who was on the wrong end of Pujols' greatness. The slugger smashed a 369-foot, two-run homer to right field in the third inning, giving St. Louis an 8-0 lead and breaking a tie with Barry Bonds.
