Heads to bench for series finale Pujols is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact After starting in six of St. Louis' previous seven games, Pujols will retreat to the bench for the final contest of the first half while Nolan Arenado gets a turn as the designated hitter as he manages a back injury. Pujols, who went 7-for-23 with a pair of home runs and two walks over his last six starts, will get a couple of days to rest up before he plays for the National League on Tuesday after being named an honorary All-Star for the Midsummer Classic in Los Angeles.

Knocks another homer Pujols went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Dodgers.
Impact Pujols opened the scoring with his second-inning solo shot. He's found a little bit of a groove lately, going 5-for-11 with two homers, a double and three runs scored in his last three games. The 42-year-old is up to a .219/.306/.394 slash line with six long balls, 20 RBI, 14 runs scored, six doubles and a stolen base in 160 plate appearances. He'll likely continue as the designated hitter versus most left-handed pitchers, though he's also started three straight games against righties.

Keeps making history Pujols went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 6-1 win over the Phillies.
Impact The 42-year-old got the start at DH and smacked his 1,378th career extra-base hit in the seventh inning, moving him into sole possession of third place on the all-time list -- and breaking a tie with fellow Cardinals legend Stan Musial in the process. Pujols doesn't have enough time left in his career to surpass Barry Bonds (1,440) for second place or Hank Aaron (1,477) for first, but that is still excellent company to be keeping. In the final campaign of his Hall of Fame career, Pujols is slashing .216/.301/.373 with five homers and 19 RBI through 49 games.
