Albert had a pretty impressive 2006 season against the Astros. His .310 batting average is a little lower than his season average, but the 10 runs in 16 games is pretty good, along with his 11 rbi's. How about that walk to strikeout ratio. 14-8, can anyone beat that?

Minute Maid park has been good to Albert Pujols in his career. In the 53 games, the .332 batting average is extremely impressive, along with 16 homeruns and 32 rbi's, and for the fourth time, less walks than strikeouts. Nice.
