Here's how close Albert Pujols is to 700 home runs

Albert Pujols is one of the greatest hitters of all time, a force at the plate who racked up three MVP awards and two World Series titles.

Now, near the end of his incredible career, he's about to add a rare honor to his collection of achievements.

Pujols is two home runs away from becoming just the fourth member of the 700-HR club, joining Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron and Barry Bonds. It's been something of a late-career renaissance for Pujols -- his return to the St. Louis Cardinals for what he says is his final season has sparked his best offensive year in over a decade.
