    Albert Pujols was only moderately excited when he looked up at the scoreboard and learned he had tied Babe Ruth's career hits total with his 599th home run.

    The slugger always prefers to see less attention focused on his milestones and more on the Angels' victories -- particularly when a first-time starter plays a major role.

    Pujols connected during Los Angeles' nine-run third inning in a 9-3 victory over struggling Bartolo Colon and the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night.
