I hope by the time that I'm done in this game, I can have half the numbers Stan Musial had in his career.

I don't play for records.

There is only one El Hombre and that is Stan Musial.

I don't want to be too stiff, because then my hands won't be as quick.

You know your talent. You know if you work hard, your hard work is going to pay off one day.

I consider myself a line drive hitter with power. I just try to put my best swing on the ball every time.
Albert Pujols
Image
I'm a really smart player. If you tell me something, I get it quickly. If there is something wrong with my hitting, tell me what's wrong and I'll pick it up right away. That's the best thing I have going for me, my ability to listen to a coach and fix what I'm doing wrong.

I trust that I can hit a fastball, that I can hit any pitch they throw to me.

I have five young children, and I take being a role model very seriously.

Preparation is very important. The pitcher is going to do his job and prepare for you so you as a hitter must do the same. I always watch videotape of pitchers before the game and even sometimes during.

I'm going to be prayerful about it. Whatever decision I make hopefully is the best decision I can make for my family and the fans and everybody.

There's three things that as a professional athlete you want. You want to get to the big leagues, and I accomplished that. Winning a World Series ring, I got that. And then getting to the Hall of Fame. That's everybody's dream. Every athlete, they want to be up there in the Hall of Fame, mentioned with the greatest players to ever play this game.

It doesn't matter if I hit a home run. It doesn't matter if we win a game. It doesn't matter if I go four for four. Whatever happens at the end of the day, as long as I glorify His name, that's what it's all about.

Every year it gets tougher and tougher. Mentally and physically. That's why you need to train and prepare.

I thought about it a lot (losing the 2002 NLCS). It's something you have to go home and wrap it up because if you keep thinking about it, you're going to take that to Spring Training and you're not going to be able to concentrate on your work.

I'm a teammate guy, so whatever I can do to help my team to win like I have the past two years, that's what I want to do. If it takes for me to play first base, third base, right field, I just want to win the game.
Albert Pujols
Image
To me playing third base and left field and moving all over the place, it doesn't bother me because I still have to grab that bat and hit no matter where I play.

I play to represent God, something bigger than baseball.
Albert Pujols
Image
I try to spend as much time as possible with God and my family. That's more important than anything I'm doing in baseball.
Albert Pujols
Image
People ask me if I believe how quickly my career has taken off. I just tell them that Jesus Christ is my strength. God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. That is more important than anything I could ever do in baseball.

When you get a walk-off homer, you get to do whatever you want. You need to be excited about it. You don't get too many of those, so you need to enjoy them when they come.
