The Los Angeles Angels pulled themselves back into the postseason race by taking a series from the Minnesota Twins over the weekend.
During the two teams' doubleheader on Saturday, Albert Pujols stepped up to the plate mired in a career-worst 0-25 streak. He promptly banged a single through the infield and asked for the baseball once he reached first base.
The gesture was obviously a joke and an expression of relief after breaking his lengthy drought, though Twins pitcher Mike Pelfrey didn't really understand what was going on:
