Cardinals Face Pressure for Key Performances in 2025

The St. Louis Cardinals hold notable records for home runs in the month of April, with Albert Pujols tying the MLB record for most home runs in April during the 2006 season, and the 2000 Cardinals team holding the record for the most team home runs in the month's history. Pujols’s strong start was pivotal to the Cardinals securing their tenth World Series title that year, highlighting the significance of early-season performance. In addition, players such as Jim Edmonds, Mark McGwire, and Fernando Tatis contributed significantly to the team's impressive April totals in 2000. These achievements underscore the Cardinals’ historic offensive prowess early in the season and their impact on the team's overall success.
