Gavin Lux’s reaction to Albert Pujols’ 673th home run was all of us (Video)
Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux had a priceless reaction to Albert Pujols belting a 3-run homer against the Diamondbacks.
Albert Pujols really is an ageless wonder. On Sunday going up against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the future Hall-of-Famer stepped up to the plate and belted a 3-run homer. This one was a true no-doubter, with everyone knowing that ball was leaving the yard as soon as contact was made.
In the Los Angeles Dodgers dugout, Pujols’ teammates were going nuts. This includes second baseman Gavin Lux, who was basically speechless after seeing Pujols’ homer. Seriously, you’re going to want to check out the video below for a priceless reaction from Lux.
Gavin Lux was stunned watching Albert Pujols smash a 3-run homer
If you’re laughing while watching Lux’s reaction, you’re not alone. That really is gold. He couldn’t believe what he saw. It was almost as if Lux had just seen a ghost or something. Pujols is 41 years old, but he’s still making the kinds of plays he was while in his early 30s.
This is of course something the Dodgers, the reigning World Series champs, love to see. Meanwhile, for the Los Angeles Angels fans, it must suck as they watch Pujols continue to leave the park with so much style and swag.
When the Angels released Pujols, he had five homers and was hitting under .200. Since joining the Dodgers, he’s batting around .250 and is tied with the most homers for the club with his six. The Dodgers are currently 1.5 games back of the San Francisco Giants for first place of the NL West. You know this team will be ready to go on a deep postseason run and defend their title. For Pujols, he’s looking to win his third World Series this fall.
