Former Los Angeles Angels All-Star first baseman Albert Pujols is taking in some Laker basketball this fine Saturday evening.
The future Hall of Famer is set to watch the Lakers take on their rivals, the Golden State Warriors. However, before the game, he stopped Lakers guard Austin Reaves for a jersey swap before the start of the game.
Pujols handed Reaves one of his baseball jerseys, but it was his St. Louis Cardinals one, not Angels one.
The 44-year-old spent 12 years with the Cardinals, cementing his legacy in St. Louis. He was named NL Rookie of the Year, two-time World Series champion, sox time Silver Slugger, two-time Gold Glove winner, three-time NL MVP and an NL batting champion.
Although he spent a ton of time as a Halo, he could never reach the same heights as he did in St. Louis. Nonetheless, he was named a one-time All-Star as a member of the Halos in 2015.
It's great to see The Machine out and about and witness some Lakers basketball in person.
