On the San Francisco Giants podcast with Morris:

#1 St Louis Cardinal pitcher Albert Pujols shut the door on the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. Pujols who pitched in the top of the ninth inning giving up a three run homer to Luis Gonzalez and Joey Bart hit a solo home run still the Pujols and the Cardinals had plenty of room as Pujols retired the next three batter for a 15-6 win.

#2 After playing in the majors for 22 years Pujols never pitched and said after the game that it was a dream to pitch in the majors and he pulled it off.

#3 Pujols said he loved pitching that inning except giving up the two home runs to Gonzalez and Bart. Saying  “It was fun. It wasn’t fun giving up two bombs. I think the fans had a good time. I’m sure the guys that took me deep did, too.”

#4 Just a baseball fun fact Morris, Pujols became the oldest player to pitch since Lena Blackburne who did it at 42 years old in 1929 for the Chicago White Sox.

#5 The Giants open up a three game series in Colorado tonight starting pitcher for the Giants LHP Alex Wood (3-2 ERA 3.60) and for the Rockies RHP Antonio Senzatela (2-2 ERA 4.88) a 5:40 pm PDT first pitch.
