MCT - 033108tvpujolshitshomerun Cardinals player Albert Pujols watches his home run in the second inning against the Colorado Rockies on Monday March 31, 2008 at Busch Stadium in downtown St. Louis. The game was the first of the season for both teams, but was cancelled and will be replayed in its entirety on Tuesday evening, April 1, 2008 after heavy rains halted game play in the third inning and showed no signs of letting up, hence the cancellation. It was a solo homer for Pujols, but won't count, due to the cancellation. TIM VIZER/BELLEVILLE NEWS-DEMOCRAT
