It's exciting having our people yelling. It takes me back to when I was playing down in the Dominican in Little League, having my parents and my friends yelling. It's great.
More Quotes from Albert Pujols:

It is a great honor to be here. I want to thank Hank Aaron for the intensity he has for this game and for this award. ... It is one of the greatest awards I have ever received. I wish I can hit half as many home runs as he hit.

With a guy like that, you've got to get him early. If he starts to feel comfortable and make his pitches, he might throw eight or nine strong innings at you.
Albert Pujols
I try to be patient at the plate and draw my walks like I did with runners at first and second. We got four runs in that inning. That's the key. If I'd tried to come out of the strike zone, I probably would have hit into a double play. That's the last thing I want to do. I want to be patient at the plate, just try to see the ball and, like my dad would say, take what they give you.
