Albert Pujols And DK Metcalf not in the same universe sportingly at this point in their lives. However, they shared a basketball court on Friday as part of NBA celebrity games, and I have to say, it’s amazing that one of the greatest baseball players of this century — is about to pass away. run 24 houses swan singing season – was like a beer tournament slugger.
Describing that sequence as trading bins by Metcalf and Pujols is absurd. One guy lifts the rim, the other does Winnie-the-panda looks like an Olympic athlete. Besides witnessing how quickly the Pujols let loose, the highlight of the evening was the Metcalf.

“I hate bitches.” But please wait a moment.
Well, I don’t feel so bad for Pujols now (although I’m not sure how I should feel about Hardy). It could be worse – because being knocked down by the multiverse Jay Glazer is 150,000 times worse.
