Wainwright and catcher Yadier Molina broke the record for starting battery in AL/NL history with 203 wins; the feat was overshadowed not by the full Blood Moon eclipse, but by a future hall of famer.

Albert Pujols came in to pitch for the first time in his career.

San Francisco's Evan Longoria got a hit off Pujols and asked for the ball! Both teams were having fun with it.

Pujols' ERA will not be a career highlight, but he got the final out and the game ball.

Crazy night. Maybe it was because of the Total Lunar eclipse afterall.
