Good for Pujols!!!!



What a great guy, I often wonder if players care about their foul balls injuring people...


I'm glad the kid is okay and I'm sure Pujols really cheered the little guy up


Who cares if he's lying about his age, the guy is an awesome dude!

Wow

This coupled with his ESPN story on helping with kids with CP really is making him my favorite non-Twin

The espn story was about his involvemnet with children who have down syndrome, specifically his relationship with his step daughter who has DS and girl from the ST Louis area who has downs. They also did a story about him during the WS that was really good.

Good to hear. Some good news in a world of mostly negativity is definitely really refreshing.

Umm......actually watch the game and take a glove? That would solve the issue.

It was a line drive, all it would take is a second of not watching.

I think what he did was really nice. On the other hand, if you're a professional athlete and you put a two year old in the hospital, you kind of have an obligation. The kid could have died. I think the other stories about him giving away the cruise and marrying an older woman with a disabled child were even more impressive.

Only takes one second to wreck your car too. When you're at a game, you pay attention to the game while it's being played. It's not like there are not enough breaks for talking or whatever.

Obligated though? Why? Pujols was playing a game he's payed to play. What did he do wrong that would put him under obligation to visit the kid?

I think it's way cool that he visited the kid, but he certainly wasn't under any obligation at all to do it.
