  • The rematch that everyone has been waiting for! It’s been over a year but we finally made it happen. This video is a combination of both a match vs my dad, and story telling of his career.

    I grew up watching your father, that home run he hit off of Brad Lidge will forever be engrained in my memory as well as many others. As great of a player as your father was, he's clearly just as great if not greater of a person. Honorable, disciplined, professional, balanced, and his character shows through you as well!

      Top 3 sickest home runs I’ve ever seen in my life. Top one is Jorge Soler in the same ballpark

    I wasn't even a Cardinals or Angels fan, and I will always remember your father. I have so much respect for him going out year after year performing his best like a professional. His accomplishments speak for themselves, but how he carried himself made him larger than life.

    AJ when your dad was a rookie me and my dad did our first fantasy team. I was 11. We finished on auto draft. Your dad was picked up and carried our team! He instantly became my favorite player! As I followed him I realized as great as he was on the field he was even better off the field! He’s my all time favorite! My brother in law plays MLB and he was invited to a golf tournament your dad will be at and I could’ve killed him for turning it down!

    I've always looked up to your dad. Growing up through my baseball career and now coaching baseball, I have always said my favorite player was Albert Pujols. This is a lot of fun to see this side of him and continue to be able to be a fan of him. Best wishes for health and happiness in 2024!

  • @bologna_lover
    @bologna_lover 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    man i remember being super young, barely in elementary school, and seeing albert for the first time. i grew up a huge cardinals fan, and watching his rise to stardom motivated me to be not only the best athlete i could be, but the best man i could be. he's truly a shining example of what humans are capable of - both on the field and off it. my dad passed away a few years ago, and at his funeral one of his slowpitch softball teammates said he was the albert pujols of their team. that made me incredibly proud. just subbed to the channel AJ, looking forward to more content

    I grew up a St. Louis Cardinals fan, cheering for them since I was 3 years old. Your dad was my inspiration to start playing baseball, and I actually ended up playing in college. He will always be my favorite St. Louis Cardinal, as well as my favorite athlete (low key cried when he hit number 700). Thank you for everything all the memories Albert

Your video pushed me to go visit him and I’m so glad I did! Much love gotta cherish these moments!

    Your father was my childhood idol and whose swing I tried to replicate through my days of playing in college. I'm now 27 and golfing instead of baseball and found you and Good Good without even knowing who your father was. Funny how things line up. I'm sure your dad is proud of you finding your own path and career. Much respect to both of you.

    i grew up and still live an hour from STL. I've seen your dad play upwards of 100 times in person. Even got to see him hit 688 and 689 at home against Milwaukee in late August 2022. He's my favorite athlete of all time. And he seems like an even better person than ball player. Enjoy the new year Pujols family.
