Simply stated, Albert Pujols is one of the best players in the game today. In 2007, he became the first player in baseball history to hit 30 or more home runs in each of his first seven seasons. Pujols is also the first player since Ted Williams to begin his career with seven straight 100 RBI seasons. In addition to winning the Rookie of the Year Award in 2001, Albert also was the National League MVP in 2005. He has made six appearances on the All-Star team, has won three Silver Slugger Awards, and captured his first Gold Glove Award in 2006.
This red home St. Louis Cardinals cap was worn by Albert Pujols during St. Louis' 2006 championship season when the Cardinals won their first world title since 1982. Signed neatly on the brim by Pujols, this cap comes with a letter of authenticity from the Pujols Family Foundation (pictured above), also signed by Pujols himself. This New Era size 7 ¼ cap exhibits moderate evidence of game use, and has Albert's #5 written in black marker under the brim. If you are chasing a piece of Pujols game used memorabilia with rock solid provenance, look no further.
Pujols items from the 2006 Championship season are extremely scarce and this is the first Pujols cap from that season with Pujols Foundation letter and hologram that we can remember seeing.
