Only then, a 21-year-old kid named Albert Pujols showed up. 




Spoiler alert, he wasn't 21.

I'd guess he was more like 24 or 25 when he first came up.

I read once that Pujols got intentionally walked something like 55 times as a senior in high school out of protest by opposing coaches who thought he was older than 18.
