MLB.com: Feast Mode: Pujols’ huge night evens NLCS

Albert Pujols led an all-out assault on Shaun Marcum and a parade of relievers as the Cards handed Milwaukee its worst home loss of 2011, throttling the Brewers by a 12-3 score Monday night in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series. The game was over for all practical purposes in the middle of the seventh following the Cards’ fourth multi-run inning.
...
Pujols hammered a two-run homer to left in the first, a two-run double to center in the third and an RBI double to right-center in the fifth—driving in five of the Cardinals’ first six runs. He added another double for a 10-total-base evening, before handing it over to the rest of his offense.

I don't get it, is the headline writer saying that Pujols is fat?

my guess is that it's a weak ass play on the Brewers celebration that involves some type of beast. For some ####### strange ass reason the msm is obsessed with the Brewers celebrations, instead of the great Brewers team. I mean the Brewers won the first game, and seriously the guy who is interviewing Braun and Fielder is talking about their celebrations and not their ####### play.

I'm not sure of their other options, but the Brewers would be nuts to send Marcum out there again. He's broken.

Most efficient postseason performance ever? ... Talk about pitching to the score.

Amen, AND it's unprofessional bias. The media certainly covers the Cardinals with the proper attention to how the team is... SQUIRREL!

Marcum is hurt, right? Who takes his spot?

Even if Pujols re-signs with the Cardinals, I hope his skills never diminish. He's so much fun to watch.
