The Rockies have already lost Troy Tulowitzki. Dexter Fowler could be next:

Hitting in cage painful for #Rockies #LosRockies CF @DexterFowler24. May have another X-ray to make sure right ring finger isn’t fractured.

Fowler hurt the finger against the Nationals a week ago when he was hit by a pitch. He’s gone hitless in two games and seven at bats since. Overall he’s having a fantastic year, hitting .298/.395/.488. If he’s out for an extended period, the Rockies are really gonna be in trouble.

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Los Angeles Angels slugger Albert Pujols passed Willie Mays for fifth place on the career home run list, hitting No. 661 on Friday night against Texas.

The 40-year-old Pujols connected for a solo homer with two outs in the fifth inning. He sent Wes Benjamin‘s fastball on a 1-2 count over the wall in left field.

Pujols has hit five homers this season. He tied Mays last Sunday at Colorado.

It is only Pujols’ second home run since Aug. 4. He now trails only Barry Bonds (762), Hank Aaron (755), Babe Ruth (714) and Alex Rodriguez (696).

Pujols has one more season left on his contract with the Angels after this year.

Benjamin was the 428th different pitcher Pujols homered against in his career. Only Bonds has homered against more pitchers (449).
