Martinez won three Cy Young Awards and was selected for eight All-Star Games in an 18-year career that culminated with his induction into baseball's Hall of Fame in 2015.
Pujols just finished his 22-year career, returning to St. Louis for one final storybook season after leaving a decade earlier following what might have been the best 11-year run to start a career by any hitter in MLB history.
Martinez currently is a commentator for TBS' coverage of the playoffs and recently came to St. Louis to interview Pujols for a feature that aired Thursday afternoon in the pregame show leading into the Seattle-Houston telecast.
