ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Los Angeles Angels slugger Albert Pujols homered twice to pass Willie Mays for fifth place on the career home run list in a 6-2 win over the Texas Rangers on Friday night.
Pujols hit No. 661 in the fifth inning to break the tie with Mays, then connected again in his next at-bat.
The 40-year-old Pujols now trails only Barry Bonds (762), Hank Aaron (755), Babe Ruth (714) and Alex Rodriguez (696).
The Angels quickly congratulated Pujols on Twitter.
Congratulations, Albert.
