Why was Albert Pujols taken out of the game?

Albert Pujols: A strained left calf is the culprit this time, as he injured it while running the bases in the first inning of Tuesday’s game. Right now, consider it a day-to-day injury. He may be able to play before the weekend series in Houston, though the Cardinals can ill-afford to risk further injury to their star, especially with the recent knee infection that has sidelined Rick Ankiel , who will probably miss another game or two.

This guy is great...even when he doesnt start he produces.

It's as if he heard people starting to doubt him and then crushed one for good measure. God I love this guy.
